On Windows 11, the Settings app is quickly becoming a complete experience for customizing the desktop and managing system settings. The only caveat is that since anyone can make system changes in the app, it can lead to potential misconfigurations.
Although you could block access to the Settings app, Windows 11 includes multiple ways to hide pages in the app to prevent users from making specific system changes. In addition, you can use the option to hide settings you may never use. For example, you could hide the "Access work or school" page if this is your personal computer you use at home or the "Device usage" page if you're not interested in telling the operating system how to personalize ads, tips, and recommendations. Or you could show only the pages you want to appear in the Settings app while hiding all the rest.
