I suspect that, at some point, you either accidentally or deliberately chose the express settings mode. That choice made everything other than login go away. There aren't too many different settings other than redefined privacy settings. You can get to it from your settings app.

Subject: [VICUG-L] Updating to Windows 10 Creator's
Hi All,
I just updated my desktop to the Windows 10 Creator's update by
installing and running the Update Assistant. I was excited about talking
my way through the update as I've heard from a mainstream podcast and
from Blind Bargains. Weirdly, that didn't happen for me. I'll explained
what happened in case others have the same experience.
I installed the Update Assistant, which took a surprisingly long time.
While it downloaded, I browsed a week's worth of BARD releases, had
lunch, and read email. After that, I went into my Downloads folder and
pressed enter on the installer. Next I pressed alt+y to let the update
make changes to my computer. Then I sat around and played leftist
YouTube comedy videos on my phone. The updater said it could take up to
ninety minutes, so I didn't panic when nothing happened right away, but
after two hours, ....
I hit Windows+enter and ctrl+Windows+enter. One of them started
Narrator. Jaws started talking as well. I tabbed around. When I found
the Use Cortana option, I pressed enter on it, but that only made the
log-in screen come up. I signed in, and I closed both Edge and Narrator.
Everything was back to normal after that. This was unlike previous
updates, where I had to answer questions and set up Wi-Fi.
Not sure why things didn't work for me as advertised, but the transition
was straight-forward once I started speech. Just sharing with the class.
Ciao
