Didn't they say that they'll remove the traditional control panel?
>>
>>53775300
What the fuck are you talking about? They're moving all of the functionality from Control Panel to the new Settings pane. Every update moves more and more functionality over. I think the only thing I even use the old Control Panel for is to manage Bitlocker.

The reasoning why both still exist is basically explained here >>53775354

Why in the fuck did they even publicly release it then if the OS clearly isn't finished? Getting so tired of this bullshit. Games currently being the biggest offender. Guess we'll just start getting half assed software and they'll just finish it whenever the fuck they feel like.

Really?
>No telemetry or tracking unless you install those updates
>All updates can be reviewed and hidden
>Lighter and faster than either 7 or 10, especially on lower end devices where you'll feel the difference more
>You can avoid all the fail Metro crap if you like, just install Classic Shell and you'll only have to venture into PC Settings rarely for a couple settings like bluetooth. 10 forces you to use more Metro stuff even if it is windowed; being Metro still makes it slower than native win32/64.

They realized that there is no reasons to use windows just for using windows.
You use this pile of garbage because of muh gaymes or shitty wage slave excel shits.
Since day one there is an ugly af font rendering in this panel and they don't give a fuck.
Once all the mainstream windows programs will NATIVELY work on linux, hopefully windows will die.

>>53775300
The point is to move everything into the settings app. The real reason this hasn't happened yet is because Win7 retards would chimp out even more cause they can't handle even the slightest change.

So now they are doing it slowly instead.

the reason it hasn't happened yet is because they have shittons of legacy code they're trying to keep while at the same time making the UI simpler. Can't change everything and keep it the same at the same time. That's why these old control panel windows still exist despite trying to simplify it starting in Vista
