I hate the settings app so much that I've just learned the powershell commands for setting up printers and changing NIC settings. Honestly it wouldn't be as bad if a. It didn't take forever to load on occasion and b. I could have two settings windows open at once.

It's so hard to find settings there that jumping between network center and add device is not intuitive. If they remove control panel from servers too I might quite my msp job and go work at a grocery store.
