    Hi,

    This issue usually happens because of a corrupted or unresponsive Windows Settings component, or a service conflict after an update, which can cause the Power & Sleep page in Windows Settings to freeze or not load properly even after restarting.

    1. Restart explorer.exe

    On your keyboard, press Ctrl + Shift + Esc.

    Go to the Details tab.

    Scroll down and find explorer.exe.

    Right-click on it and select End task.

    In the menu bar, click File.

    Click Run new task.

    Type explorer.exe and press Enter.

    2. Reset Settings via PowerShell (Admin)

    Right-click the Start Menu and choose Windows PowerShell (Admin).

    Copy and paste the command below, then hit Enter:

    Get-AppxPackage windows.immersivecontrolpanel | Reset-AppxPackage

    Restart your computer then check.

    3. Run SFC and DISM to check and repair system corrupted files:

    Open Command Prompt as an administrator.

    Copy and paste each command below, then press Enter. Please run each command one at a time:

    DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    sfc /scannow

    Restart your PC

    4. If that fails, the next step is to try System Recovery without deleting your files and apps.

    Click the Start menu > Settings > System > Recovery.

    Choose Reinstall Now under the section labeled 'Fix problems using Windows Update.'

    Once completed, your system will restart. Please check afterward.
