I figured out the problem. I'm betting that you can duplicate it if you try.

Put the page which contains the User Account module under a menu item which has restricted view permissions. Your module will go crazy and you'll see all kinds of mayhem if you do this in DNN 7.3.1. I've seen some references on forums to undesired behavior in DNN 7.3.1 with regards to permissions handling.

My sites usually have a "staff only" menu item with view and access restrictions so that the general public can't even see the menu item. And we put all the staff-only "under the hood" controls to everything in there--controls for people who don't need to be admins. If you make such a menu item (a disabled page at the root level) and give it view permissions to a role of "staff" but not "everyone" your module will greatly misbehave if you place the page it's on under such a menu item.

I can access the module settings after installing. And I've tried every permutation on things there all to no avail at fixing the problem mentioned above.
