Or heaven forbid you want to check your network settings and your printer settings at the same time!

Or how the network settings pages often don’t even have basic network information on it, so you literally can’t even use the supposed debug page to actually diagnose even the most basic network issues!

Specifically Windows 11? Is that due to bugs, or intentional redesign?

I've never found any way on the Windows 10 network page to configure, troubleshoot, or display diagnostic network information. I have to go the 'old' one that is more like what was present in Vista & 7.

What information are you specifically seeking that you aren’t finding on that page?

I think you're supposed to use Recall for that now. Open the network settings, then switch to printer settings and ask the LLM what your network settings were.

It's a much more elegant solution than multiple windows in Windows!

This design is very human.

I really hope that's a joke, hard to tell these days with AI-bros spouting similar nonsense ;)

windows then: "we show you all the guts in a window and hope you click the right things

windows now: "we hope your prompt engineering is strong, that is our only interface"
