Settings (formerly PC Settings) is a UWP app included with Windows 8 and later, Windows Server 2012 and later, and Windows 10 Mobile.

Functionality

On Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8, PC Settings was designed as a simplified settings area optimized for use on touchscreen devices. It exposed a small portion of settings accessible via desktop Control Panel with a two-paned interface; additionally, some functions (including adding accounts and changing user pictures) could only be done from PC Settings.[1] Windows 8.1 improves this component to include more options that were previously exclusive to Control Panel.[2]

On Windows 10, the app is renamed "Settings", and as with all other Windows apps, now runs within a desktop window. It includes more options that were previously exclusive to the desktop Control Panel.[3][4] As it is also a Universal Windows app, this version of Settings is also used on Windows 10 Mobile for smartphones and tablet computers.[5][6]
