Display Settings / Themes won't open Help

New to the forums here and love all the info!

I can't for the life of me figure out how to undo what I did (or disabled) in windows so that now when I right click the desktop and choose display settings it just closes and nothing happens. Or if I right click the desktop and click on personalize and click themes nothing happens and it just closes.

I do disable some services (avid gamer here) and I do have the Themes service running, but with so many services I don't know which ones are tied to those in particular, or if any.

Im currently running Windows Pro x64 Version 2004 (OS Build 19041.388)

Any help/info is highly appreciated!

You can re-register Settings app you can also use the batch script to set Windows 10 services to default startup type.

Open PowerShell and execute the following command:

Code:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
