Speaking of Control Panel, it plays a diminished role in Windows <strong>10</strong> but is far from gone. Since the<br />

launch of Windows 8, each successive Windows release has moved more options into this app, usually<br />

(but not always) removing the corresponding entry in the desktop Control Panel. This is an ongoing<br />

process as well, one that is continuing after the initial release of Windows <strong>10</strong>.<br />

The System pane, shown in Figure 2-4, is a case in point. In the most recent Windows <strong>10</strong> release,<br />

clicking or tapping Power & Sleep offers only limited options. The shortcut in the bottom right, Additional<br />

Power Settings, leads to the familiar Power Options page in Control Panel. (See Figure 2-5.)<br />
