    Possible to replace setting with control-panel everywhere?


    Just wondered if it would be possible to change every button that links to a page in the settings app to link to classic control-panel like in Win 8.1? Like "Sound" or "Display settings" etc.. Maybe someone has written a script or something similar? Would this be possible with (a lot of) registry edits?

    Im currently using Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 (Like 1809 i think). I wouldn't want to go back to anything older like 1507 where the settings app was practically unused.

    Control Panel will be replaced with settings?

    I noticed that some of the settings that used to be in the control panel now seems to be in the settings....

    Is this a sign of Settings replacing Control panel in the future versions of Windows?

    Control Panel vs. Settings?

    I prefer control panel. I found it after digging around and sent a shortcut to start.

    Questions:

    1. I know MS is looking to get rid of control panel in favor of settings. However, is it possible to add control panel to the start right click list?

    2. Is there a way to change settings display so it lists the traditional icons?

    Possible to replace setting with control-panel everywhere?

    Will Settings eventually replace Control Panel?

    I like settings as well. I believe its Microsoft's aim to fully replace Control Panel.

    The only parts of control panel I use now are uninstall programs and power settings.
