[Win 8.1] Troubleshooting Change PC Settings

It happens that the user accidentally deletes something from the computer via a program or manually, so some options do not work for him. The most common problem is the "Change PC Settings" option located in the Charms bar under "Options".

What's happening:

  • the user clicks on "Change PC Settings" but nothing happens,
  • Click on "Change PC Settings", the application appears but shuts down immediately
  • an error occurs when clicking on "Change PC Settings"...

How to solve:

Start CMD (Win + R and type CMD in the field and click Run. Or right-click on the start button and then on CMD)

Copy the following Code in the CMD window and press Enter

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\ImmersiveControlPanel\AppxManifest.xml

Wait a moment and when everything is done, start "Change PC Settings". No need to restart the computer and the like.

To click on the post or not?

Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.
