And also items from the old control panel don't appear any more when you search in the start menu. Which would be ok if they had been replaced by an equivalent

  Let me have their pretty UI. If you want to geek out, there's Powershell.

    Powershell is shit for discovery & not useful at all for the majority of Windows consumers i.e regular users. You shouldn't need to learn powershell to switch your audio output

  See a few comments up this very comment chain. They’re hidden because they look dated, regardless of their usability

  They're removing the pre-Windows 10 Control Panel items with a new Settings interface. The problem is that it's far worse:- Tasks such as changing network adaptors setting, or sound settings. I regularly switch between three different audio devices on my desktop PC, and doing simple tasks such as toggling volume levelling isn't in the new interface and digging into the old is becoming harder and harder to find, with more clicks for every revision. Just yesterday I went to add a firewall rule, and that was hard to find. I'm an MCSE, so you would think I could change a firewall setting! It definitely doesn't feel like an improvement, it feels like they're forcing an abstraction. Plus they've recently removed the Control Panel when you right-click the Start menu. That was about the only 'Safe Space' left. I feel for anyone who has to support Windows 10. They're definitely not listening to the users. This is the FisherPrice interface all over again, but there's no stopping it this time around.
