Help! I have Windows 8 and I need to find the Control Panel! Where is it? Haha, Windows 8! So much fun that Windows 8! For SOUND SETTINGS: *Go to the bottom right side of the screen. *Right-click on the speaker icon and select “Playback Devices.” *This will open your sound settings pop-up window. For the CONTROL PANEL in general: *Go to the bottom left of your screen and click the white down arrow (seen in Photo 1) to open up the big list of programs. *Scroll all the way to the right to view the Windows System section. * Select the Control Panel. *If the Customer is only seeing about 10 categories in the Control Panel, go to the top right and change the View By drop down from “Categories” to “Large Icons”
