Hello
I have a problem with the power options (right click on start, third option).
When I click it, the setting windows open for a second and then it closes by itself, same thing if I go to the battery symbol from the taskbar and try to start from there.
Any solution ? Thanks in advance !

I'm running Windows 11 Pro 22H2 (build SO 22621.2361).

Hi, I forgot about that !
Yes I can enter to the power options through the control panel, thanks !
Anyway I would like to understand what is preventing me from opening it from start or from the taskbar... do you know if there is a scan or something else to understand and fix the problem ?

Could be a bug in that build.

The next update is tomorrow, so may wait and see if it opens from Settings afterwards.
