Windows 8.1 PC-Einstellungen ändern App defekt, reparieren fehlgeschlagen / PC-settings app corrupt, repair failed

The app "Change PC Settings" in my Windows 8.1 installation was broken. Opening it by WIN+I -> Change PC Settings  came up with a splash Screen telling me that the app is broken and i might fix it refreshing my Windows Installation. Doing so, Windows told me some files are missing and i need the install media (which i don't have since it was an online update version).

How-I-fixed-it:
I found the right hints here: http://www.deskmodder.de/wiki/index.php?title=PC-Einstellungen_reparieren_Windows_8.1

Press WIN+X and open the command prompt (Administrator).
Copy:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\ImmersiveControlPanel\AppxManifest.XML

paste it to the Command Prompt and execute it.
