That's a problem with a lot of modern desktop UIs. The industry has somehow unlearned how to use multiple windows. Everything is a tablet app in a single window now.

The ultra modern solution: just remove settings until they can all fit in a single window. And then remove a few more.

But keep the removed ones available to determined enough users through undocumented registry keys and "defaults write" commands.
