I find it funny they've been trying to kill the Control Panel for 12 years now and still haven't been able to do it. Microsoft, here's an idea you can have for free: Put an "Other" section in the Settings app that opens the Control Panel inside the app, QED.

Nice screenshot, nobody will recognize by this what did they remove

While My go to is control panel if they fully committed to settings in win 8 I wouldn't give a fuck. I don't care where my settings live as long as it's all in 1 place

Pity I have shifted enough away from win thar I only need it for a single program and could no longer care

At least windows god mode still available although you need a little bit trick to summon it

No big deal to me. I use search in control panel to find what I need. Do the same for Settings. Or just open mmc and load the appropriate item.

The only thing I actually like about windows. Damn.
