idk why they still aren't using WinUI or doing any important things. like control panel to settings.
I know right, my guess is that they intended to solidify their base before jumping into other big features. I'm very hopeful that we're gonna see big changes after this build, specially since literally all the known issues are fixed now.
I also like if they get rid of the control panel forever and add all the details to the settings page instead.
maybe they even surprise us by bringing back the Windows SETS 🙂
ngl, Settings sucks. Control Panel's layout was quite good and everything was native af. In the programs and features page I can press on a key and it'll jump to it. I could search and type ahead for file types and stuff (but i don't think this is available in control panel anymore unfortunately). I can't right click on folders in the start menu to go to it's location but in Windows 7 I could.
And there's even bugs like the low battery warning being a File Explorer window in the taskbar.
I also wonder why they make Your Phone's features limited to certain phones when Pushbullet is so powerful.
I just don't get Microsoft.
we could dream!

- The only thing that bothers me is that I have to refer to control panel and can't do everything from the settings. I like the new look and feel, control panel was great back in its time but IMO it's old now and fact is it's not touch friendly.
I agree with the your phone app, there are thousands of phone models but only Samsung phones are getting the priority. I wanna use the screen mirroring feature on your phone app and my phone is Android 9 but I can't.- I don't have any issues with the appearance of Control Panel personally but I guess it's a lot more dense than Settings. I hope Microsoft does something with the density like what they've done with the system tray. It changes it's size when there's a touchscreen. It gets even bigger in tablet mode.
- I think they stopped working on control panel anymore, haven't seen any changes in it for a long time reading the change logs
