    Thanks for the help.

    Ive tried every step, but it doesnt change.

    Though I got the info, other user are affected to in WIndows 10 Professional versions since 19041.423 Update.

    I gave feedback via Feedback Hub, since its only a indication error and cause no system problem.

    Hello Christian_S,

    Thank you for updating me that information. I'm sorry it didn't resolve the issue. Even the repair installation didn't fix the issue?

    Press Start then right click the Gear Icon

    Select More > App Settings

    Click Terminate > Reset

    Restart your PC then Check Settings

    If it doesn't work, Re-register Settings app

    WIN+X then select Windows Powershell (Admin)

    copy paste the command: Let the command complete before pasting the next command.

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name windows.immersivecontrolpanel | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -Verbose}

    Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    Restart your PC

    if it doesn't work, Please try to create a new local administrator.

    if it still doesn't work, I would recommend to send feedback and suggestions about the issue through feedback hub app. Hopefully Microsoft will notice and this issue will be fixed in the future updates.

    Hi and thanks for the reply.

    i included screenshots in the first post.

    SFC and DISM found no errors, i already done an inplace upgrade to check if its a problem with the windows installation.

    Im not sure, what caused the change, since the value in the regedit, which include this version info remains on 2004 but chaning takes not effect (which normally should) nor I found a similar issue on the web.
