Скачать или смотреть How to Open Control Panel in Windows 10 and Bring it Back to the Start Menu

Watch how to open Control Panel in Windows 7, 8 and 10, and also how to have it back in the Start menu.

In Windows 7 and earlier operating systems by Microsoft users could get to ALL management options and settings in Control Panel. To open it, you had to click Start / Control Panel. In Windows 8 and 10, Microsoft introduced a menu called Settings and users could no longer see Control Panel. Nevertheless, you still need Control Panel to set up and manage many system functions even in the latest versions of Windows.

To open Control Panel in Windows 8 or 10:
• Right-click on the Start menu or press the key sequence Windows + X
• In the list that opens, select Control Panel.

Here’s the second method.
• Click on Start
• And find the folder Windows System in the list of programs.
• Open it, and you will find Control Panel there, among other items.

Using Windows Search, you can find and start any application or program installed in your system. To do it:
• Click on the Search icon
• and enter “Control Panel”
• Windows will find and suggest Control Panel (Desktop App)
• Click on it and Control Panel appears.

You can add a Control Panel shortcut to the desktop.
To do it:
• Right-click on the desktop.
• And select New / Shortcut
• In the window that opens, type Control in the field “Type the location of the item”
• Next
• Enter the shortcut name
• Finish.
• As a result, you will have a Control Panel shortcut on the desktop.
• Now you can open it right from the desktop, pin it to the Start menu or taskbar.

And the last thing - in Windows 10 Creators Update you will not see Control Panel on the Start menu list after you press Windows + X. If you are already used to starting it from there in previous builds of this operating system, I will show how to bring it back to its usual location.
To do it:
• Go to the folder
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group2
• This folder contains shortcuts to the tools shown in this submenu of the Start button.
• In order to add the Control Panel item here, you have to put the Control Panel shortcut, which was located here in the previous build of Windows, into the folder we have opened.
• Restart the operating system.
• Now when you right-click on the Start menu, you can see Control Panel back where it used to be.
