Windows settings are crashing after a minute of two when I leave it open, only when I open the display settings, but only when it's windowed and not on maximized. I close all programs that are involved in that, but it keeps happening. I did a system check, disk check, installed the previous intel graphic driver. It didn't changed anything.

I have looked in to drivers that are installed and found this.
DXGKrnl LDDM Graphics Subsystem: Controls the underlying video driver stacks to provide fully-featured display capabilities. (Verified) Microsoft Windows C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\dxgkrnl.sys Sat Feb 18 07:04:57 2023
The last timestamp of dxgkrnl.sys was on Sat Feb 18, so it have to be installed later...
This is my iGPU adapter I am using.

See the Above picture, which describes the task scheduler application, few tasks are registered , browse to each folder, on the right side if you see any items then delete it.
Note only a few tasks cannot be deleted because users do not have the permissions.
Not sure about this, but I tell it anyway... Sometimes it doesn't crash when I first open the display settings (after that it allways crash), but when I open the HDR it happens for sure. On my first install windows the software told me I could not use HDR, after an update I could use it, and I did. And now I cannot. When I look in to the specs of my screen, I can't find any HDR support for my display. Maybe the change I made is somewhere registered and during the improvement update can't access anymore.
Hello Daen,
Thank you for updating me with that information. Have you tried doing an In-place upgrade? Please let me know how it goes.
As an additional step, please try to perform a Clean Boot of Windows
**Perform a Clean Boot
Determine whether a background program or a software conflict is causing the issue.
It's for sure software... I knew that already, but I did a safe boot anyway to make sure and than it doesn't happen then. Than local security authority processes is not filled in under safe boot. So no any misdirection yet.
Don't know what you mean with an In-place upgrade...
Not sure what task... These are the processes that are concerning me.
And a specially the Local Security Authority Process, that contains
You could be right, a task is doing this. because it happens after a minute or so after opening settings. I have thought about too, but don't know where to look.
Also, try to delete or disable tasks registered under the task scheduler application.
