Messed up with the Default revisions

Ok, so while trying to change how revisions work I made the mistake of modifying the Default revisions. Now, this would not be a huge problem if it wasn't for not being able to change it back. Whenever I try to save, I get the following error message; Internal Error: the major revision "A" specified for Revision is invalid Highly frustrating. I tried creating a new "Default" revision to replace the old one where it is used but when I try to do that; Internal Error: the major revision "A" specified for ItemType is invalid. I could resort to reinstalling Innovator but I would really prefer not having to take it that far

    Ok, for anyone else messing up like this, our IT guy and I managed to find our way to the correct location on the server. Going through a long list of parameters we located one containing the suspicious-looking term "Revision". This then contained two rows, one containing the name "_ARAS_default", which was the name I had changed the default revision item to. In the revision column we could then replace "001 A B C /.../ Z" (my messed up revisions) with "A B C /.../ Z" (what it originally was). And this seems to have been the solution to our issue.   Hopefully someone will chime in with a better detailed description of where to look.

    Yeah, I also did this once. I changed the Default Revision Schema from "A B C" to "V B C" just to see what happens. This was the official solution from support: A quick solution is to edit the database: - Start SQL Server Management. - Expand the database InnovatorSolution and expand Tables, locate the table innovator.REVISION. - Right click and select Edit Top 200 Rows. - Change the value in the Revision-column to "A B C D”
