I find it funny they've been trying to kill the Control Panel for 12 years now and still haven't been able to do it. Microsoft, here's an idea you can have for free: Put an "Other" section in the Settings app that opens the Control Panel inside the app, QED.

Yes, obviously. You know, I wonder how many instances of Windows 95 you can simultaneously emulate on an Android smartphone? The point is this is for retro PC enthusiasts/hobbyists. For many, emulation just isn't the same experience as running it on real hardware.
