Fucking fix your bloated background service's, every update they add more and more services and background applications that serve little purpose, like the touch screen service that's running on my fucking desktop that only has a mouse and keyboard

another thing that annoyed me was the useless setting page, when control panel worked fine.

especially since you end up needing to get to control panel to do anything anyway

Don't worry! Control panel is being slowly phased out in favor of the settings.

Just like that one Windows setting with UI elements from Windows 3.1 . Control panel will probably be phased out in 20-30 years
