Control Panel VS Preferences

The Windows Control Panel has always been known for its ups and downs. Excessive and repetitive classifications can easily confuse users.

Windows has been streamlining Explorer since Vista Classification and list of columns, left list, default icon, address bar, landscaping of menu bar, etc. At the same time, the addition of this powerful feature of the library makes the Windows 7 resource manager even more powerful. A variety of display methods, simple menu bar, optimized address bar display. There are up to 5 types of icons displayed, and at the same time, large icons are displayed. This is similar to Mac OS X 10.6.
