Next will be NT. I think they will put their thing above a Linux somewhere in the next future.

Is this just for 11, or are they going to ruin 10 some more with this change too?
I'm not seeing it mentioned in the article.
Well, 10 is going away in about a year anyway, isn't it. I don't think they really care about 10 anymore.
I'm staying on 10 until it really doesn't work, and then moving entirely to Linux. I already don't use windows much and I'm not missing most of it.

Why do they hate their customers so much?
I recently found the YT channel Michael MJD, and it has made me realize how fun and cool Microsoft was in the XP and 7 eras.
It was just before the cloud ruined everything and it was before the curse of the flat UI design.
It was a more fun time.
Windows 7 is the prettiest Windows ever made, with XP running Royale theme a close second.
Microsoft mjght have been better than thwy are now then, but they were NEVER fun and cool. Dont be gaslit.

I’m not sure what to say. Settings just doesn’t let you get anything done. Are they going to add all the missing functionality to settings before getting rid of control panel? We all know the answer.
If my company didn’t have a windows mandate I would fully abandon it at this point. What a joke.

Good god, this is sad to witness. As long as I've been using windows, they've added duplicates of every single thing, but presented differently, each version being slightly more incapable in slightly different ways. How can a piece of software be so utterly lacking in design and forethought is beyond me, for real.
You will have to take ncpa.cpl from my cold dead hands
Changing IP assignment in the modern settings app is straight up annoying

That's fine, I can't imagine using another version of Windows once 10 LTSC hits EoL.
And just like that the last vestiges of my computing childhood are gone. I'm gonna go sadly play Oregon Trail on an emulator now.
Good luck finding the settings to allow unregistered exes without the control panel

This would bother me more if I hadn't switched to Linux full time 5y ago. Microsoft is gonna Microsoft I guess.
Every one of these Microsoft controversies since I ditched them has just validated my decision.
