In previous versions of Windows, Microsoft opened the Devices and Printers manager in Control Panel. In Windows 11, they have hidden this link.
To reopen this option, press Windows + R, at Run box type:
explorer.exe shell:::{A8A91A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A}
and press Enter.

- You can create shortcuts for easy reuse later by:
Right click on your desktop, and click on New select Shortcut, type:
explorer.exe shell:::{A8A91A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A}
then click Next, type Devices and Printers for the name, and click on the Finish button.
You can now open Devices and Printers by clicking this icon.
If you want to change the icon to be similar to the default Devices and Printers, right-click on it, select Properties, click Change Icon, find the path:
C:\Windows\System32\DeviceCenter.dll
select the icon you want and press OK.

Optionally, you can add Devices and Printers to the Control Panel. Download devices-and-printers-classic.reg and apply the REG file.
