Devices and Printers - Add Device / Add a printer - Flashes and closes

[Chris_Chros]

Hello,


I have Windows 10 1909 and when i go to:


control panel - Devices and Printers - Add Device / Add a printer the menu flashes for 1 sec and then closes.


Also if i go to:


start menu - settings - devices that menu also flashes for 1 sec and them closes.


In addition Bluetooth settings don't work.


I don't have a printer installed and i don't have any Bluetooth devices i just noticed that those menus don't work.

I have installed windows about a month ago. I have setup my computer exactly like i want it it's very stable and fast and would not like to format and start over.


I have tried the usual routine:



sfc /scannow


DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth


DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth


DISM.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup


Get-appxpackage -all *shellexperience* -packagetype bundle |% {add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode ($_.installlocation + “\appxmetadata\appxbundlemanifest.xml”)}


and didn't help at all.


I have tried to find relevant error messages in Event Viewer but nothing came up.

I assume some service is not starting properly or something similar that's why the menus won't work.


Any help will be appreciated.



Thank you

Chris
