    Settings App vs. Control Panel?


    one day the control panel will be completely gone.


    but microsoft has to take baby steps to avoid problems.

    and other companys will have to convert their control panel files to work with the settings app.

    Reinstalling a program that I accidentally deleted in the control panel

    Hi,

    I accidentally uninstalled a program (Miracast) on my Control Panel and now I want to get it back but I do not know how. I am seeing no "reinstall" buttons. Actually I think I lost it when I updated the Network Adapter in the Control Panel (well maybe but
    not completely sure). Anyway I would like to get it back into my Control Panel program. If someone can help it would be appreciated.

    Thanx much, Jon
