How to reset kernel configurations to defaults (self.linuxquestions)

I messed up big time with a few depmod and modprobe commands and now I see the console log every time I log onto my pc and my TTYs are flooded with logs. It's pretty annoying. So I wanted to know how I could reset my kernel configurations to defaults ?

I'm on Arch Linux and latest. Unfortunately I didn't know about Timeshift backups before I did this so I'm a little screwed here if that's the only way to restore my kernel modules back to what they used to be when I installed it.

What boot loader are you using? It should be a matter of just undoing what you did.
