Windows "god mode": https://www.howtogeek.com/402458/enable-god-mode-in-windows-10/
What is god mode?
It's very easy to set this up, and it also works in Windows 11. Even if Microsoft removes access to the normal Control Panel, I seriously doubt this will be taken out.
I hate to be that guy, but why don't you just move over to Linux already? Games work. It's incredibly easy now. A nine year old could install and use xubuntu.
I am past the point of having "a" computer with "an" operating system... the concept of "moving" to another OS is basically irrelevant... I use different environments for different purposes and there's no good reason to leave potential functional value unused for the sake of ideological convictions or fanboyism or whatever. My problems now revolve around having a useful cross-platform account that has access to my files on any/all of my platforms/VMs. I do lean heavily on open source software, I prefer it to proprietary.
More basically, an OS is not a food that you might like or dislike, it is a tool that you use when it is suited to the task. Discriminating against tools doesn't make sense, it only limits your capabilities.
Please read this older comment of mine, it explains my point of view on this more... and if you want to do something really interesting then try to implement Qubes and actually use it for awhile.
Windows literally makes an effort to break Linux distros installed alongside it.
