Why can't I open any settings from my pull down screen

[Android Central Question]

WiFi, Bluetooth, phone settings, notification settings won't open from from the pull down screen. Note10+, latest updates, running Nova launcher (although same from default launcher). Only happened last 2 days. 04feb20.

Did you try restarting the phone , maybe a glitch?

It sounds like you answered your own question... Nova launcher.

Have you tried uninstalling Nova or, and I'm not sure if this is possible, disabling Nova?

Nova launcher doesn't come on Note 10 +, it can be uninstalled as it's a 3rd party launcher ,but this happens on both stock launcher and nova launcher.

Somehow I missed the () part where they said default launcher... My bad. I still want to blame Nova though. It never fully uninstalls or at least not correctly from the posts I've seen about it and/or the settings don't always return to normal after its use. This still sounds like exactly the type of thing that would happen with Nova.

I guess the questions would be;
Did it work before you installed Nova?

Did it work after you installed Nova?

Look at the change log for Nova and see when the last update was, if it worked after its installation, and see when the last update was and did it work up to then and stop working after?

I want it to be clear to all who see these forums that members have tried to offer the help for which the questioner has asked and that there is no dereliction on their part.

I get it. I get it completely.

The op probably just had the setting for the pull down ticked off.
