Martin was kind enough to tell us the reason for the crash. According to the eventlog the crash of "SystemSettings.exe" has something to do with an error of "msvcrt.dll". The topic is very old, but I also had the problem of a crashed settings app on a freshly installed machine with Windwhen you try to access the display settings. But this is not always true, because blog reader Martin Feuerstein ran into the problem of the crashing Settings app in September 2020 on a freshly installed Windows 10. Optimists claim that it has become more stable and it was also said that the crash bug in the settings app has been fixed by Microsoft. Meanwhile we have 2020 and Windows 10 has gone through a few generations. As repair approaches I presented a fixit tool as well as manual repair methods. The users can't change any settings, because the Settings app crashes immediately after calling it. The blog post was about the problem that some users who upgraded from Windows 7/8.1 to Windows 10 were facing issues. I had already covered the topic in 2015 in the German blog post Windows 10: Einstellungen-App stürzt ab – und ein Fix-Tool, that was shortly after the release of Windows 10.
