    Corporate needs you to find the difference between"Advanced Windows Settings" and “Control Panel”

    They’re the same picture.

      Ah, but you see, they are not the same. Control Panel is an archaic tool that lets you configure your windows quickly and efficiently. The new and improved AWS will be designed from the ground up to waste your time and discourage tweaking. It will probably obfuscate some settings, quietly remove some settings, track your usage, etc.

    are they finally replacing some of those legacy screens?

    its funny how theyre ‘planning’ feature parity to an ancient product. it shows you how incomplete this crap is coming out the door.

    Omg, how many panels? Old-fashioned control panel, the mmc voodoo, the system settings introduced (IIRC) in version 8, regedit, PowerShell, and this.
