Windows 10: Is feedback hub app broken or is something else wrong??????

I am currently on Windows 10 version 1809, however the feedback hub app is saying that I am on build number RS5_Release 17763. My laptop updated to 1809 last night only. I am only running Windows Insider builds on my old Nokia Lumia Icon, which I do not use anymore. My laptop is not configured to run on Insider Builds and I can confirm that by looking in settings -> Updates-> Windows Insider Preview, which is asking me to join the insider preview. Thus my laptop is not configured for insider builds. However after looking on the internet it is saying that RS5_Release 17763, is an insiders preview.

Settings does offer this if you dig a bit from the Apps & Features list

 

Feedback Hub broken: unending circling dots when I try to log feedback


I seem to have broken the Feedback Hub - I can't log any feedback ( I just get circling dots which never end).





This is on a PC where I've just clean-installed 1709 in the last few days. The problem happens on all accounts on the machine (one local, one local admin, one MS Account admin).

Other aspects of the Hub (eg. displaying news on latest Insider builds) seem to work OK, but I can't log anything.

So far I've tried

1. Going to the list of All Apps in Settings, selecting Advanced Options for the app and then Reset
2. Uninstalling the app using Powershell (using this Tutorial) and re-installing
3. Using the Store Apps Troubleshooter

Incidentally the thing I was trying to log was high CPU usage by Desktop Windows Manager - not sure if it could be related or indicative of another problem?

Any ideas on what I can try next?
