Fedora 23 GNOME new install cannot open 'System' application and subsidiaries


Hi
Recently installed Fedora 23 64 bit. Everything is updated and upgraded (wasnt working before either). When I try to access the 'system' application, from any of the various icons/links the OS just shows a spinning icon, then nothing happens. No freeze, just application doesn't open. I tried to open the bluetooth app separately, same issue.
Is this a bug? any way to move this on?

Thanks.

Hi:

It could be a bug <or> something didn't go smoothly with the fresh installation.
Did you check the integrity of the .iso file before you installed Fedora?

Make sure your pc is 64-bit:
Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo

What DE are you using, Gnome? XFCE?

Remember that FC is the testbed for RH so it can be buggy.

Installing another DE may fix the issue. See the second link.
