Restore Qt Creator default layout

The window I see looks like this

I am totally new to Qt development. Infact today's my first day! I installed Qt 5.3.1 open source (LGPL license). I was looking around in the Qt Creator and accidentally closed several sub-windows and not able to view the actual code, other list of opened files, etc. But it does load the project and also executes when I click the green 'Run' button. How do I recover the default layout? There is no window layout/View option in the menu. Can't see anything online! Please help...

Qt Creator creates some files to save the settings. These files are in different location in different operating systems.

On Windows Vista and Windows 7 :

<drive>:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\QtProject and <drive>:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\QtProject

On Linux :

~/.config/QtProject and ~/.local/share/data/QtProject/qtcreator

Try to delete QtCreator.ini and many settings including the layout are reset to default when you reopen Qt Creator.
