I've installed Ubuntu on my PC, but unfortunately when I click on "Settings" or type "sudo gnome-control-center" on the Terminal, a red dot appears on the left side of the settings icon, but it doesn't open. What can I do?

1. In the terminal, run the command:

sudo journalctl -f

Then launch the app from Activities. Wait a minute without doing anything else, then close the app, and Ctrl+C to stop the journalctl.

2. If that doesn't work, you might need to reinstall gnome-control-center. Do so with:

sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-control-center

And then run it from the terminal, sudo gnome-control-center, or launch it from Activities.
