windows settings not opening

Question

Hello, I ran into an issue where my settings would not open, i tried every shortcut and troubleshooting fix i could think of, and even some on the internet.

However, Its like the settings menu doesn't exist. The settings opens up for a split second, then quits, and i cant access any of the settings I need. If someone can help me fix it, that would be great. Thanks.

Hi RAHUL JAIN2.

I'm David, and I'm happy to help you.

Try the procedures below. If you've already done one, skip to the next one.

Reset the Settings app:

1. Press "Windows + X" and select "Windows PowerShell (Admin)";
2. Type or paste the following command and press Enter:

Get-AppxPackage *windows.immersivecontrolpanel* | Reset-AppxPackage

If it persists, use the system file checker to repair possible corrupted or missing system files.

1. Open Start and type cmd, right-click on "Command Prompt", and select "Run as administrator".
2. Run the following commands at the Command Prompt one at a time:

dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

sfc /scannow

3. Restart the PC.

If it persists, re-register the Settings app:

1. Press "Windows + X" and select "Windows PowerShell (Admin)";
2. Type or paste the following command and press Enter:

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

3. Restart the PC.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions.
