    Windows 11 Beta not allowing me to open settings


    My PC is a Dell Optiplex 3050 with an Intel Core i5 7400 and Zotac GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mini... I am running windows 11 build 22543.rs prerelease version for the past 1 or 2 months... 2 days ago I performed "delete and rebuild index", since some of the apps arent loading in the search and from then my pc started to not work properly... Whenever I try to open certain apps like whatsapp desktop or even settings, they won't open... Instead it makes the start and search useless... I rebooted it multiple times, it didn't make any effect... when I did an startup repair, it showed some error saying th

    Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


    Hello,
    Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
    I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
    I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
    Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
    I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
    Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    IE 11 in Windows 10 not allow files to open in FTP portal

    Originally my laptop was using Windows 8.1 and I got to upgrade to Windows 10 recently. Before upgrade I can still open files in ftp portal and am able to upload, download and delete files there but I totally failed to do so after upgraded
    to Windows 10. Before I put my question here I have asked the Microsoft CS Officer in Hong Kong about my issue then they gave me this link for reference to get the helpful answer.



    IE 11 not allowing files to open in ftp portal



    However I have gone through the entire article and tried certain suggestion but still don’t work. Honestly there have some suggestions are too difficult to understand and some that I daren’t to follow and don’t know how to follow such as methods
    as below.



    My questions are:


    • Does Windows 10 still support IE 11 allow files to open in FTP portal?

    • The following instructions are tailor-made for Windows 7 and how about the terms for Windows 10?

    • I tried but I really don’t know how to do Method 1 & 2, even though I know it but scare to do the resetting because I don’t know what will be happened? I just did Method 3 the second part, it was fine but not the normal setting
      that I wanted as usual just type the ftp address in the browser then open in a separated window. I can do everything there!

    Can any top level users or technicians help me to solve this problem? Many thanks in advance!



    Method 1:



    Enable FTP folder view
    option.



    a. Open Internet Explorer, Click "Tools".

    b. Select "Internet Options".

    c. Open "Advanced" tab.

    d. Take a look at "Enable FTP folder view (Outside of Internet Explorer)" checkbox. Verify it if it isn't checked already.

    e. Repeat the previous step with "Use Passive FTP".



    Method 2:



    Step 1:



    I would suggest try opening the website in compatibility view. To do so, you can refer to the following article.



    Fix site display problems with Compatibility View

    Fix site display issues with Compatibility View in Internet Explorer 11



    Step 2:



    If the issue still persists, I would also suggest you to reset Internet Explorer 11. You can refer to the following article to do so.



    Change or reset Internet Explorer settings

    Change or reset Internet Explorer settings



    Note: The Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature might reset security settings or privacy settings that you added to the list of Trusted Sites. The Reset Internet Explorer Settings
    feature might also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature. Resetting Internet Explorer.



    Method 3:



    Temporarily disable the firewall/ anti-virus and check if it helps.

    Important: Make sure you enable the anti-virus if the issue still persists. If the issue resolves then you may need to check the settings or uninstall and reinstall the software.
