The transition to the newer Windows 10 operating system has raised a lot of questions for many users. After all, the developers have significantly changed the control interface of this version of the OS compared to Windows 7. For example, the control panel was hidden in an unknown place and you can no longer access it in the usual way through the Start menu in Windows 10.
