    Options missing in Windows 10 Settings


    My laptop fell a few days ago. When I tried to turn it on it wouldn't boot and would go into PC repair mode (but the repair kept failing). I gave it for repairs to an IT person, who reinstalled Windows 10 (activated product).

    After that I am missing a lot of options from settings (screenshots given below). How do i bring back these options (and possibly other settings options that might be missing? and why is happening in the first place?

    Also, I cant find the softwares installed in E drive in the start menu or apps list in settings or control panel (Windows is in C drive). I can access few of them manually from their installation folders in E drive, but some aren't working at all. How do I make the ones that are working to appear in the start menu/search/apps list/control panel, and how do i fix the ones that aren't working at all?


    "Send/receive files via Bluetooth" options are missing:

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
