Windows 10: Windows wont open start, settings, action center, cant click search in explorer etc. tried...

I am losing my mind, I can't do anything that doesn't have a shortcut on my desktop.

It's been like this for a few weeks but I really didn't wanna get into it, but I have important video appointments coming up and bought a webcam that I can't use.

Action Center

Hi,

Let's follow these steps to disable action center:

• Click on Start, type notifications in the search box.
• In the list, select notifications & action settings.
• On the right side, click on turn system icons on or off.
• Turn off action center from there.

Hope it helps. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to reply. We will be glad to assist you.

 

Disable Action Center in Windows 7?

Unfortunately that doesn't disable Action Center, all it does it cause Acution Center to bitch about the Security Center service not running.

Action Center seems to be a different beast from Security Center...

And telling it to not display any messages gets it out of the way, the same way disabling the icon in the suggestions above does, but Action Center is still enabled and running.

 

Unable to launch open Settings and Action Center in Windows 10

Hello Emmanuel,

We're sorry to hear the inconvenience you have experienced.

From your description, I suspect that the issue seems to be temporary. Suggest you to shutdown your PC completely, then restart it after a while and then try to open settings to see if it responds.

If you want to open Control Panel, type Control Panel
into the search bar on the task bar, and select the same from the list when it appears. Alternatively you can open
Settings, through Start Menu or press Windows Key + R,
then type ms-settings: into the run command and hit Enter. You can also type
Control Panel in run command to open the same.

In case problem still persist, then try the below mentioned troubleshooting steps.

Use the DISM tool and System File Checker for repairing any missing or corrupted system files:

• Click Start.
• Type cmd, and then press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to open elevated command prompt (I.e. Command prompt with admin rights).
• If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click
  Continue.
• Type or copy paste the below command lines one by one into it and hit Enter:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth


DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth


sfc /scannow

To close the Administrator: Command prompt window, type Exit, and then press Enter. Reboot your system to see if problem still occurs.

If you are able to open settings, I would suggest you to check if you have enabled
Action Center as well as turn Notification On. To check follow the steps below:

Action Center

1. Click on the Start Menu and click on theSettings icon.

2. Then navigate to System>Notification and Action.

3. ClickTurn system icons on or off option, then slide the
Action Center bar to ON.

Notification.
