    Theme panel not present in Control Panel (Windows 10)


    I've always been big on using themes on my Windows 10 computer, but recently I tried using my favorite theme (called Nocturnal), so I searched in the Windows 10 start menu for themes, normally I'd go to control panel, but since Microsoft is big on replacing CP with the Settings app Control Panel didn't show up. I clicked on the Settings one and selected Nocturnal, all it changed was the taskbar color and the wallpaper. Normally it changes the title bars icons:


    __ [ ] X


    but it didn't, so I just went ahead to Control Panel clicked on Personalization and themes is gone, I can't get the normal Control Panel theme layout, did Microsoft remove it?

    :)
