Hello Windows Insiders!
We released the first preview build of Windows 11 today to the Dev Channel. We're excited and hope you are as well!
There is currently a known issue that affects devices with multiple user accounts that take this upgrade. Here are the details and a workaround for the bug.
Who: Dev Channel users installing the upgrade to build 22000.51
What: Settings app will fail to launch on devices that have multiple user accounts prior to the build install
Why: Known bug causing the issue, fix is underway for a future preview build
To work around this issue after the install, please follow these steps:
- Ensure all work is saved on the device. Close open applications.
- Click Start
- Type powershell and select/launch the Windows PowerShell application
4. Copy/paste and execute this ENTIRE command:
- *Get-appxpackage microsoft.ui.xaml.cbs |? {($\_.version -ne "2.62106.1002.0")} | remove-appxpackageAdd-appxpackage -Register -DisableDevelopmentMode -ForceApplicationShutdown C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.CBS\_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xmlGet-appxpackage microsoft.ui.xaml.cbs |? {($\_.version -ne "2.62106.1002.0")} | remove-appxpackageAdd-appxpackage -Register -DisableDevelopmentMode -ForceApplicationShutdown C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.UI.Xaml.CBS\_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml*
- Once completed, please try to open the Settings app. If it opens successfully, you're done!
- If the issue persists, please paste and re-run the command a second time
- After running the script a second time, please open the Settings app again.
- If the crash issues persists, please reboot the device and this should complete the process.
That should fix affected devices. We're also working on a fix that will be included in a future preview build to prevent users from needing this workaround.
Please share below if you have any questions about this workaround or if you have any issues when running it.
Thank you!

2021-09-03T23:14:04+00:00 My Windows 11 Explorer service stopped to respond, so no Windows key shortcuts where available or responding either.
Fortunatelly I had a shortcut to Powershell and was able to run this registry delete command.
It saved my day!!!! Thank you so much, RiGa2408

2021-09-03T16:32:08+00:00 Ich denke, ich habe das gleiche Problem. Ich kann das Startmenü weder durch Klicken auf Start noch durch Klicken auf die Windows-Taste von der Tastatur aus starten. Außerdem kann ich das Info-Center nicht öffnen, um Benachrichtigungen anzuzeigen, und ich kann keine Programme auf der Taskleiste anheften oder lösen (im Allgemeinen funktioniert das Klicken mit der rechten Maustaste auf Programmsymbole auf der Taskleiste überhaupt nicht) Bitte helfen Sie, wenn es eine Arbeit gibt, da dies das einzige Problem ist, mit dem ich derzeit bei diesem Build konfrontiert bin.
