I don’t know why I even bother opening the settings app

    Ah yes. Well when I want to modify my IP address I do:

    Win+R

    Then I enter:

    Ncpa.cpl

    And hit enter. So easy.

    Not so easy is the more useful printer settings:

    Win+R

    Then:

    shell:::{A8A91A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A}

    🤦🏻

      its faster to change the ip using the win11 settings app than with Control panel, also DNS over HTTPS is missing from control panel and only available in the settings app

        This is how you open the dialogs you’re looking for instead of randomly clicking through 4 items deep in this new crappy UI

          New crappy UI that was also reorganized about 4 times since Windows 10 launched, so depending on how old of a build (and with Windows update breakage it could be quite old!) is on the computer that was just dropped before you you might have to click for a while
