- Windows Control Panel deprecation has been officially announced by Microsoft, signaling the end of its 39-year presence in the operating system.
- The Control Panel has served as a centralized location for system settings, but is being replaced by the more modern Settings app introduced in Windows 8.
- Over the years, many Control Panel applets have been phased out, with the Settings app gradually absorbing their functionalities, especially in Windows 10 and 11.
- Despite the deprecation announcement, all existing Control Panels will remain available in the upcoming Windows 24H2 update, and the transition may take years.
- The design of the Control Panel has remained largely unchanged since its inception, with many elements dating back to Windows NT 4.0 and earlier versions.
