Ubuntu 18.10 System Settings does not open
I have a weird problem where the "Settings" if opened from Power button on right corner and then click on Settings icon does not work.
An icon of settings appear on top bar, but disappears after some time.
The system settings on Activities didn't work either, but once I copied the gnome-control-center.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications is working fine now.
gnome-control-center on its own works fine. I am at a loss on why the System Settings from the power icon on top bar and then settings icon does not work. Any way to check what is happening when that icon is clicked?
