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 and notifications apps crashing

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.

• 
  Open an Administrator CMD window. If you can’t find a way, use these steps:
  
  • 
    Press CTRL+Shift+ESC to open Task Manager.
    
  • 
    Click File > Run New Task
    
  • 
    Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”
    
  • 
    Type CMD
    
• 
  Type the following commands at the CMD prompt:
  
  dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
  
  sfc /scannnow
  
• 
  If EITHER command does not show a good outcome, we need to stop and repair Windows. We have 3 options:
  
  • 
    Go Back: If there are other significant issues, or if the customer is not sure of using Windows 10, Go Back. The plan from there will be to clean up the configuration to prepare for an upgrade.
    
  • 
    Reset: If possible, remove Antivirus/Sec Software and perform a Reset (keeping data and settings). Customers will need to reinstall apps with this option.
    
  • 
    In-Place Upgrade: If the customer is unwilling, we can try uninstalling the Antivirus/Sec Software and try an in-place upgrade. We should set expectation.
    
• 
  If the above commands both completed and show no remaining issues, run these commands:
  
  powershell
  
  Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
  
• 
  Check to be sure this command ran, showed a blue progress indicator and then returns to the prompt.
  
  • 
    If you see a red error, then the command may have been typed or pasted incorrectly, or there may be a larger problem with Windows 10. Try again.
    
• 
  Check to see if the issue is resolved.
  
  • 
    If not, restart the PC. In this case try as a new administrator user account.
    
  • 
    If the new user also fails, go up to the steps for “3. If EITHER command does not show…” above. We need to repair Windows.
    

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

Try creating an SRP (Software Restriction Policy) in Windows 10 Home. It has no effect.




Settings are totally ignored. The file still launches.





That's just one example.
