If your main problem is resetting messed up settings for anchordocking
package, you can edit or delete the saved settings.  Open
environmentoptions.xml in your Lazarus profile folder (e.g. on Windows:
c:\users\username\AppData\Local\lazarus), search for <AnchorDocking> and
either edit or delete the node (I didn't test this myself...).
Alternatively delete the file, or the whole lazarus folder - but this will
obviously delete a whole bunch of history and other settings too. This is
for Lazarus 2.0.10, newer versions may be a bit different.
