Windows Control Panel
Most of the control panels, utilities and applications within Windows are accessed from the Start menu in Win-
dows 7 (Windows 7’s standard interface is the desktop - see page D - 5), and from the Desktop in Windows 8
(see page 1 - 30 for more information on the Windows 8 Control Panel).
Throughout this manual you will see an instruction to open the Control Panel. In Windows 8
right-click the
lower left hot corner to bring up the context menu (or use the Windows Logo Key + X key combination)
and select Control Panel. If you are using a Touch Screen then access the Charms Bar from the desktop
(not the Start screen), tap Settings, and tap Control Panel or access it from the All Apps menu.
