The Control Panel used to be listed on the bottom left tray (is that called the Start menu?) but now I cannot locate the Control Panel at all. How do I get to it, and is it possible to make a shortcut for it to get to it quickly?

I do not have 8.1; I was hesitating to get it until a non-preview version is out because I read somewhere that if it is not set up correctly by the user files can be lost. Sounds promising, though, if the Control Panel can be accessed quickly. I might just back up all my files and try getting 8.1. Thanks.

Once you find the Control Panel from Start, you can right click at it > select Pin to Taskbar.
got it, thank you! now i need to take a couple of aspirin and decide what the next priority item will be. sadly, i am a senior citizen and after no problems with all previous Windows (including Vista, which I really do not mind because it was easy to learn) my brand new computer is practically worthless except for web browsing because of this new interface which i curse daily.
Your not alone feeling that way....windows 8 is a big shock to everyone on their first encounter, young and old alike. It will get better as you give it time. Remember we are here to help you and youtube is great resource. Someone has made a video of just about every problem one can imagine.
Here...try this nifty little software...Classic Shell. It will give you the look an feel of windows 7 but with all the benefits of windows 8. I use Start8 from Stardock. Might be just what your looking for.
