You dont even have to look at the code to see this. Just make one wrong click in a UI and youre directly getting dragged into a UI that hasn't changed since Windows XP.

    But that's always a good sign that you've dug into the part that actually still works consistently! Once you pop some Windows 2000 era UI you know you've struck gold and need to note the path for next time (until Microsoft rearranges their settings for the 5th time this year of course)

    Funnily enough I still look for the Control Panel before even attempting to find a setting in the Settings app.

    The Control Panel is consistent, it works, and it hasn't changed in years. Meanwhile the Settings app gets rearranged every 2 months, with constant design changes, and it's also terribly slow on low end devices and VMs.

    It's sad that Microsoft is "unifying" the Windows settings and killing the Control Panel in the process.
