Little knowledge: What is Microsoft's intention to weaken the control panel?
You may have noticed that in the development process of Windows 10, the "settings" project function of the start menu has been continuously strengthened. The purpose of Microsoft is to let users gradually forget the traditional "control panel" and use the "more convenient operation and wider application." "Set" instead of "Control Panel". Now we see the new version of the Start button right-click menu, this is the result of the development of this idea. However, because the current "settings" do not completely replace the traditional control panel, the original control panel kernel has not completely disappeared from the system.
