Version 8.09? That's over 11 years old. The latest version of Electric
is 9.07 and regardless of your professor's recommendation, you should
upgrade. That way, the decade-old bugs in the system will be fixed, and
any new bugs you might uncover can be corrected.
Gavin's advice is correct, though. To fully reset Electric, you need to
delete any preferences that may be on your computer by removing them
from the operating system. The operation varies with each different
system, so read here to be sure you get it right:

Hey everyone.
I've been using Electric for 2 weeks already. It's part of an academic
course I have. It used to work well until...
Yesterday I was having class and we were doing exercises using
Electric. I was messing with previous cells to create a new one as
part of yesterday's class. While trying to create one, I clicked my
right mouse key to generate a new one and suddenly... my lines
disappeared. Instead of blue they were invisible. I couldn't add
inputs and/or outputs.
I tried going to "File>Preferences>General>Reset All" and it caused me
an exception. Did the same many times but still an exception. And this
morning someone sent me a picture so I could solve the issue by going
to "File>Preferences>Arcs", hitting "Schematic" but it caused me an
exception. I deleted it but reinstalling it doesn't work. Same issue
only when I do schematic cells.
Lines appear as invisible.
The version I've been using is Electric 8.09 and this version is what
my professor uses and recommends.
I tried to restart my laptop but still same thing.
Is there any way I could COMPLETELY remove this off my computer and
reinstall it (so the issue won't persist again)?
Should I try a later version of Electric apart from what the rest uses
(8.09)?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
