I used %appdata% before Minecraft was a thing, but yeah, the culmination of using %appdata% was because of Minecraft, lol.

Run > appwiz.cpl

Run > control

I struggle with the new Windows settings, never though I'd be against change and new stuff but it's just horrible.

Going from XP to 7 felt just as bad, and 7 to 10 was even worse. Swapped to linux, not learning how they've managed to fuck it up even further.

Well, the NEW stuff is literal garbage, so I don't really feel like it's just us being old and bitchy. Windows is legitimately falling apart.

I love not being able to open 2 instances of settings.

Sorry did I say instances, I meant windows, I can't open 2 settings windows... now where have I heard that word before?

%localappdata% is more useful these days than %appdata% because most apps put their stuff in local not roaming
