Windows 10: Strange - where is control panel?

Have two laptops - installed Win 10 on old one a while back and now on my new one.

On the old one, I have an icon for control panel - on the new one I do not and can find no way to get to control panel.

Among other things, I want to disable my touch pad but can find no way to do so on the new laptop.

:)

 

where do I find where the control panel is

I want to scan an item and a pop up states I need to go to the control panel , open mail, click show profiles and then click add. I can't find how to get to the control panel, when I was on the old windows it had everything on the left side, now its gone.
HELP

 

where do I find where the control panel is

Right click the start button and select control Panel should do so.

In addition Cortana can also find it.

hope that helps.

 

Right click at Start button > Control Panel is on the list.

Or Win + R, type in Control Panel

Or left click on the start icon and start typing Control Panel

 

You are welcome.

 

or left click on start icon, left click on all app icon (bottom one), scroll down to Windows System. In Windows System will be a Control Panel icon - you can right click on that and pin to the start screen or pin to taskbar.

 

If you go to Settings -> Personalization, select Themes and then select Desktop Icon Settings, you will get a chance to place Control Panel icon on desktop, if you wish.
