Change skin settings by ssh

I changed my skin (on a raspberry pi) and the start up page within the skin. However there appears to be a bug with the skin and I can’t select anything on the screen except for a link to the home page, where nothing works either.
Anyone know a command I can use to reset the defaults over ssh as that appears to be working?

Edit guisettings.xml under ~/.kodi/

I think it’s ‘lookandfeel.skin’
