The Winkey+x menu is still there. Items are hidden in certain pages. It would be good to spend some time just going through the options in Settings and then other things you might see open. Be sure to check the entire windows in case some options may be hiding off the screen.

I found it, I searched up settings in cortana and in settings you can find control panel. Thanks though!

Or you can just go to your start menu, go down to settings, and search up control panel.

You can also

• Press Win Key or Win Key + r
• Type control
• Press enter

Going to setting from the start menu takes a long time, and then you have to hunt for Control Panel. I wonder why they buried it like this? Thank goodness for WIN X!

Right-click on the Start button (just like in Win 8.1) and Control Panel is right there in the menu that pops up. Lots of other useful items in that menu as well.
