Could you try if that's still an issue in newer Ubuntu versions?

Title:
System Settings cannot be closed or navigated through
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
This started as I tried to update my password using the "Security &
Privacy" screen from "System Settings". As I clicked on "change
password" (don't remember the precise wording and cannot navigate to
it now) and expected to be taken to a password change screen, I was
instead taken back to the top-level "System Settings" view. Now when I
try to navigate to settings sub-views (e.g. "Appearance", "Brightness
& Lock" etc., I get a view flicker, but am not taken to the requested
view).
Moreover, I can't seem to be able to close the "System Settings" view
now. When I click "x", it disappears, but a new one opens up in its
place.
