Select large or small icons under 'view by'.Click on 'Control Panel Home' when the window opens. Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Windows-Pause to open the Control Panel if the above does not work.Tap on the Windows-key, type Control Panel and hit enter.If that does not work for you, run the built-in search troubleshooter to find out more about it. The Cortana process is reloaded right away by the operating system.
