There's an awful lot of settings in but actually, being on the preview version, you notice things move to the new settings app with every update. Also links to the control panel pop up in the settings app and the search finds the correct setting usually. They get better.

To me it's just pointless. Have all of the settings in the settings app now so I don't have to go to two places to change them. The problem with settings was that it didn't include everything I wanted/needed to change.

As far as search goes, my Windows 7 machine finds most settings too.

Thee are a lot of settings, and it would have taken too long to move them all at once.

The Control Panel remains because a lot of hardcore Windows users would have bitched if Microsoft had removed it.

As usual, Microsoft would have been criticized for whichever decision it made. That's life when who have more than 400 million Windows 10 users.
