System Settings Won't Open

Can open systems and access all sub-tabs except System. Upon opening system the settings app crashes/closes. Already tried Support and they were unable to fix it and told me to come here. Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Hi Tuxdeo,

     

    Which version of Windows (build) are you running?

    Do you also have the issue when you perform this action on another user profile?

    Have you already run these commands in the Command Prompt (as an administrator)
    - sfc /scannow
    - DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    If none of these steps help then I am afraid that you will have to do a clean install of the operating system.
