Want to open the good old classic System Properties window instead of the About page in Windows 10’s Settings app? This way. Whenever you want to know more about your computer such as installed memory, processor model, system architecture, computer name, etc. you will open the System Properties window. Typically, you can open this by searching for “system properties” on the Start menu. Or by clicking on the “System” option in the Control Panel. However, in recent versions of Windows 10, opening the classic System Properties window will open the About page in the Settings app. For example, if you click on the “System” option in Control Panel, Windows 10 will open a new About page.
Now, there’s nothing inherently wrong with the About page of the Settings app. It gives you almost the same information as the System Properties window. However, the System Properties window is one step ahead of the About page when it appears. Not only this, the new About page also does not tell whether your Windows 10 is activated or not. You will need to go to the “Activation” page to get this information.
