    Display/System Settings not opening WIN10


    Hello MS Community! I have a problem with my Win10 settings. The settings program opens great, but when I try and open the System sub-category it freezes. I really need to change my screen resolution and this is bothering me. I just a few hours ago resetted my PC back to factory defaults, saving all my HDD stuff and such, the settings were working fine before.I also tryed these in the cmd

    : •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
    •- sfc /scannow

    Please HELP

    :)

    Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


    Hello,
    Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
    I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
    I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
    Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
    I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
    Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    settings not opening in win10

    Hi,

    To clarify your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

    • Are you experiencing this issue with other application or programs aside from Settings?
    • What is "prog Init-c6e7d0.exe" and where did you get it?
    • Are you getting the error upon launching the Windows Store?
    We suggest you to run the System File Checker and DISM tool to check if there are corrupted or missing system files that are causing the issue. To do this follow these steps:

    • Press Windows key + X on your keyboard.
    • Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
    • Type or copy each command and hit enter.

      sfc /scannow

      dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    We look forward to your response.
