Overview setting are messed up... how can I get the default back?

So, I had my overview set up sort of the way I wanted it. I was switching between one that I used for mining, general travel, and some specialized pvp setting, and one an alliance mate gave me that was better for fleet PvP. Then... while the fleet PvP settings were loaded, I tried out a new overview setting pack someone shared with me. I didn't like it, so I tried to switch back to my original, to find it was gone, leaving me with only the pack that I had been given. I've pressed all the reset buttons on everything, and it deleted everything except for the "Default" tab on the pack I downloaded, and the tab presets on it, which seem to be indestructible. How can I get rid of them, and then get the default settings that came with the game back? I've looked through the game files for the overview settings, but can't seem to find them.

You can try clearing your settings out of game and that should revert the overview back to the original settings. It will however also revert other aspects of your UI including windows positions. You can see how to clear your settings in the following wiki page:
