Where Is Control Panel On Windows 8?
You would think that it would be on the standard Metro UI “Desktop”, nope, and its nowhere to be found on the “start” section of Windows 8..
To find all the settings that you are looking for such as users, system settings and auto updates in windows 8 then do the following.
Take your cursor and move it to the bottom right hand corner of the screen where you can see a magnifying glass and 4 square dots.
