I changed default sensivity for mouse and touchpad, and I can't turn the default mouse and touchpad settings now. How can I do this?

@Pilot6 from System Settings > Mouse & Touchpad – kanstra Mar 20 '17 at 12:06

The peripherals settings for Unity (and Gnome) are stored using dconf. You can install dconf-editor to inspect and reset settings manually. The mouse and touchpad can be found in /org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/mouse/ and /org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/touchpad/ respectively.

dconf-editor example

Alternatively enter the following commands into Terminal to reset all settings for mouse and touchpad:

dconf reset -f /org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/mouse/
dconf reset -f /org/gnome/desktop/peripherals/touchpad/

If both gsettings and dconf options exist, better practice to use gsettings: gsettings reset-recursively org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.mouse` and gsettings reset-recursively org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad. – Jacob Vlijm Mar 20 '17 at 13:56
