    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    Based on the description, I understand your question is related to settings app.

    1. You can try run windows troubleshooter in Settings/ system/ Trouble-shoot/ other troubleshooters/ Windows APPs troubleshooter
    2. If the issue started after a recent update, consider uninstalling it and see if that resolves the problem.
    3. Put the loading machine in safe mode, and then repeat the operation:

    Start your PC in Safe Mode in Windows - Microsoft Support

    1. Uninstall 3rd party anti-virus software, and run a full scan use Windows Defender to scan for Malware.
    2. You can run these commands from the Command Prompt to scan system files: sfc /scannow DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth Dism /Image:C: /Cleanup-Image /revertpendingactions

    Have a nice day. 

    Best Regards,

    Molly
