    Having separate interfaces for user settings and system settings makes sense for companies that prevent users from changing system settings.

    The Start Menu shit… probably just a strategy to get people to use bing.

      its not about making sense, there are plenty of system settings in the settings app. Moving to the setting app was about getting the minimum shippable set of settings into it, anything that is left in the control panel is there because it was high effort for them to untangle (or in some cases the expertise to untangle it is no long at Microsoft). They keep saying eventually the Control Panel will be retired, but its a long and expensive process
