Hello @Apothecary_Kin,
Try to re-register Settings app:
1. Open administrative Windows PowerShell.
2. In PowerShell window, type/paste following cmdlet and press Enter key:
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers -Name windows.immersivecontrolpanel | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml" -Verbose}
3. Let the command complete.
Let us know if this helps!
