CoreSettings is the primary control panel of CoreGUI for controlling CoreGUI and the host system settings.

CoreSettings on V1.2.4-Enterprise
CoreSettings on V1.2.4-Enterprise/arm

CoreSettings is split into tabs, and since 1.2.4, now has a new main user interface with the option of restorin the tabbed menus.

The following pages are available:

  • Main Menu
  • Main Menu 2
  • About
  • System Specifications
  • Connectivity
  • Display
  • Disks and Storage
  • Dock & Personalisation
  • Windows Activation
  • Updates
  • Additional Dependancies
  • Startup
  • Advanced
  • Security
  • Drivers

Clicking on a tab above will take you to the relevant page for it.

Modes

CoreSettings can be launched in two different modes, standard and Multithreaded.

Multithreaded mode is useful on older, slower systems so that you can launch and use CoreSettings without slowing down the rest of the CoreGUI Environment. This is especially useful when checking for updates.

Since the beginning of CoreGUI (1.0.0), The settings application was very basic and incomplete. This has since been overhauled multiple times, however elements of CoreGUI's 1.0.0 Menu still exist to this date, such as the arrangement of the Display Settings Page.

As of CoreGUI V1.2.4, the main page for CoreSettings is no longer the About page and instead uses the QuickMenu, which gives a brief overview of all of the tabs with an option for Advanced Settings at the bottom to restore the older Tab Select.
