Definitely an issue. I can’t count the times I’ve slammed my head because the new stupid settings screen “conveniently” switched from the previous item to another while I still expect it to open a new window just like the command panel.
Comment on Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon

Great. So managing printers, network settings and quickly comparing settings from two places becomes a weird game of screenshots and guessing.
Remote support workers of the world collectively shake their fist in despair.
No way on this planet I will be able to explain the new UI to your average office worker.

It’s as if they intentionally were making their products unusable for ADHD and especially AuDHD people.
I wonder sometimes, maybe they are. Maybe there’s some policy coming from some macchiavellian cokehead in a suit, that people like us spoil their big, important social mechanisms and introduce a measure of chaos they don’t want, so we have to be suppressed.
I just don’t understand why Windows is such an ADHD torture today. Even XP wasn’t.
It really seems sometimes as if they were going out of their way to make it such, not only MS, but also Google, Apple and who not.

The first thing I did after getting my work laptop was to install Linux. I am so glad that my work allows it.
