Microsoft officially confirms that Control Panel is deprecated in favor of Settings app
Although Microsoft has been moving system settings from the Control Panel to the Settings app for many years, the company has officially confirmed that the previous way to change settings is deprecated. This means that the end of the app is near and it will eventually be removed from the operating system.
The Control Panel has been around for a long time. Microsoft first introduced this feature in 1985 as part of Windows version 1.0. Since then, the app has undergone various user interface changes and the layout you still see today was introduced in the Windows 7 design.
This is the original design of the Control Panel interface in Windows 1.0.
