Magento2 - where the admin console user preferences stored?

Question

I have logged into the admin panel of Magento 2, gone to products->catalog and have set the 'per page' limit to 900.

My Magento instance can't return 900 records in one page so it crashes, and a div with a spinner remains active after an error message appears saying 'Attention: Something went wrong' - so I can't revise the 900 to a more suitable number.

I've tried clearing cache/client cookies, etc - but nothing is happening. I can't seem to find where the catalog product grid limit value is being stored.

Please if someone can assist, it would be good.

Thanks,

It seems your grid preference is saved in bookmark table

Go to your database and find ui_bookmark table

find the namespace entry with product_listing and remove current or both current and default. Don't worry magento will generate the default again runtime
