    Hello GianAtchico,

    I'm John an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. I want to apologize if you encountered this issue. I understand you're having problem with Settings crashing. Did you made any changes recently? When was the last time everything was working properly?

    Run the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe)

    Press WIN+R to open Run then type: cmd

    Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to Run as administrator

    At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:

    sfc /scannow

    Restart your PC then check settings app

    Restore and repair system files

    Press WIN+R to open Run then type: cmd

    Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to Run as administrator then type:

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

    Restart your PC then check settings app

    Run the troubleshooter: Right-click Taskbar then select Taskbar Settings >On the search box, type Troubleshoot Settings > Troubleshoot, and then from the list select Windows Store apps > Run the troubleshooter

    Re-register Settings app

    WIN+X then select Windows Powershell (Admin)

    copy paste the command one at a time then Press Enter.

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

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

    Restart your PC

    I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further concerns.

    Sincerely

    Hello GianAtchico,

    Thank you for updating me that information. What is your current Windows version and edition? Press Start then search Settings, select System then About. Did you try to scan your system for any virus or malware? Please keep me updated how it goes.

    Sincerely
