    Can't open Windows Search, and settings.


    I can't open my Windows Search and whenever I try to access settings with the run command I get the message "There’s a problem with ms-resourceCan't open Windows Search, and settings. :DisplayName. Refreshing your PC might help fix it." I've tried going back to a past update and, installing the newest updates, then after a day or so, the windows search stopped working and I can't even access settings.

    :)
