    Why does my settings on windows 10 freeze up


    My computer has been bugging out recently, and today I've tried to go into settings to fully factory reset it but it doesn't allow me to even open the "Recovery" part of the settings app. I can't do anything on it because if I even click around it freezes up entirely. I've tried to Restart my PC, I've opened and closed it, but nothing works.

    :)

    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
