1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Path Settings and select it.
2. Click **Enable**.
3. To let users decide whether the path remembers its previous state, select **Remember User's Path Preferences**. If this option isn’t selected, the path’s guidance details are hidden whenever the page that the path is on loads.
