Fix for Build 14915 Colors Customization crashes
Haven't seen this posted anywhere yet, so I'll post it now.
In build 14915, Personalization ---> Colors displays for a second, then crashes. I've run into this on all of my Insider OS's, physical and VM. You may also have this issue.
The event log is:
Code:+ System - Provider [ Name] Application Error - EventID 1000 [ Qualifiers] 0 Level 2 Task 100 Keywords 0x80000000000000 - TimeCreated [ SystemTime] 2016-09-03T10:49:05.103630400Z EventRecordID 1325 Channel Application Computer DESKTOP-V3T8OVU Security - EventData SystemSettings.exe 10.0.14915.1000 57c12d8c Windows.UI.Xaml.dll 10.0.14915.1000 57c129eb c0000005 00000000001d6d91 1d2c 01d205d0bd2b6820 C:\WINDOWS\ImmersiveControlPanel\SystemSettings.exe C:\Windows\System32\Windows.UI.Xaml.dll 8d94bc93-15f1-4ad9-9c16-d38cd83f57bc windows.immersivecontrolpanel_6.2.0.0_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy microsoft.windows.immersivecontrolpanel
There is a workaround. In C:\Windows\System32, take ownership of Windows.UI.Xaml.dll and rename it Windows.UI.Xaml.old.dll
Copy the Windows.UI.Xaml.dll from build 14905 to C:\Windows\System32. Restart and the Colors will not crash.
This will, of course, revert back to the bad DLL if SFC /SCANNOW is run, or an in-place repair is done.
If you do not have access to the DLL from build 14905, I have included a ZIP of it here:
