Most likely there's a fix, but we can't help without any information about the crash.
Please read this and check systemd journal for logs.

Your link is broken, can you tell me where to find the log ?

I launched the user settings through terminal:

$ gnome-control-center user-accounts

I believe this is the topic ooo was trying to link you to. As for your logs, ooo already told you where to look -- your journal.

Mod note: Moving to NC.

Sorry, I should've checked that the link worked. WorMzy posted link to the thread I was referring to (thanks WorMzy).

The output you posted from starting gnome-control-center from terminal should all have all error messages though. Unfortunately none of that gives any clue what could be causing your issue. All the errors seem to be related to your broken theme. You could try switching to default theme, but it's unlikely to be the cause.

The mass of dbus-related errors from steam in your journal may be related, and I can imagine dbus issues could result in the behaviour you're experiencing. However I have no clue what could be the root of that issue.

Also, lately there's been quite a few reports of issues with gnome-control-center in these forums, some specifically about the user account panel. You should probably check those in case any of them are related to your issue.

Can you link any posts regarding settings panel ?
