    • Do you get any error message, when trying to open network and sharing center?
    I suggest you to follow the steps below to fix the issue.

    Method 1: Install all the Windows 10 pending updates and check if it helps.

    I suggest you check for the pending updates in resolving the issue.


    • In search type Check for updates and hit enter.

    • Click on Check for updates.

    • Windows 10 will automatically install all the pending updates.
    If the issue still persist, suggest you to try the below step to fix the issue.

    The DISM tool checks the system health and will try to restore the files.

    • In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type the following commands. Press the
      Enter key after each command:
    • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    • DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
    To close the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type
    Exit, and then press Enter.
