Settings app crashes on (re-) enabling work profile

Android Enthusiasts Asked by Shahidh on November 17, 2021

I have work profile enabled on my Android Oreo 8.1 device and I disabled (turned off) the work profile from the notification drawer menu. Now, when I tap the button to enable (turn on) work profile again, it asks for my pin and then settings app crashes (Settings has stopped”, without enabling the work profile. This keeps happening.

Any idea of this is a bug with Android or something wrong with Xiaomi’s build? Are there any workarounds to enable (turn on) work profile again? I tried from the settings menu also, but results in the same crash.

One Answer

Removing work profiles from settings > accounts and adding again worked for me. Still better than doing factory reset.
