Ways to Access Windows 10 Settings

Context Menu, Hotkeys, Desktop Shortcuts, you name it

The way you configure settings in Windows has changed with almost every iteration of the OS. A rather chaotic split of the Control Panel was done back in Windows 8, placing some options in the Settings screen, optimized for touch-enabled devices. It became a lot more organized in Windows 10.

Microsoft kept the Control Panel intact in case you find the Settings panel too shallow or want more management options for Windows. Even so, you can still rely on the Settings panel for most options you need on a daily basis.

It’s pretty easy to navigate through areas of the Settings panel, but there are methods to make those you use the most accessible with a single mouse click. Either for aesthetics or practicality, we’re going to go through the steps required to make Settings accessible via the context menu, as well as desktop shortcuts.
