Hi,
If I have changed a Houdini node, like the PolyPath, which is an HDA, how do I reset it back to the original version?
Thanks,

Yeah, never unlock and re-save a system HDA that ships with Houdini.
I think the fix I used on Windows was to locate the current version of the Houdini18.0 folder, under My Documents and moved it to the desktop. Then launch Houdini again. When Houdini finds no folder exists, it will recreate the folder structure and restore the original node's functionality.

I added an extra tab to the bake texture ROP and for some reason some pre-existing tabs disappeared. It wasn't locked i just messed around in the Type Properties because i needed the Limits tab. How can i revert back to the original ROP?
if i do the fix you proposed, after you reopen Houdini i you move your otls back to the newly created folder structure? What about the houdini.env file?

$HFS/houdini/otls/OPlibScripted.hda
so in your case go to
$HFS/houdini/otls/backup
and overwrite the current OPlibScripted.hda with it
