I recently discovered windows actually has a set of far more specific troubleshooters which actually provide useful information about a problem but you have to dig around in legacy settings to find them.
Windows can still be made into a tolerable usable OS, but it basically requires a minimum of 20 years of knowledge about where the legacy control panels, settings, and secret reg keys are hidden. Every new version obfuscates them even more and yet they are no closer to feature parity with the 'modern' control panels that barely work at all.
