Windows 10: Settings app crashing on startup, not showing as being signed in.

It shows in the upper left the option to sign in, while I am already signed into my Microsoft account verified by opening Word/Excel and checking the user. If I go to the system accounts settings through control panel, the 'Email & Accounts' tab will not load, being stuck on a never-ending loop of dots. I have made a new user with administrator privileges and this issue does not occur on that user. It alsos shows on the administrator user that I am signed in to my Microsoft account o
