In Ubuntu Gnome,there’s a Windows control-panel-like interface called Control Center that you can easily manager your system.This is disabled by default and following is how to enable this in Ubuntu Gnome desktop environment.

Right-click on start Applications menu,select Edit Menus.In left box,choose System->check Control Center in right

Alternatively,go to System->Preferences->Main menu->choose System in left and check the check-box in right.

Control Center can be launched from System menu.

    Some days ago I discovered and used Control Center (for the first time), so it is already installed on my PC, but . . .
    I don’t remember how I activated it and it’s not in System->Preferences->Main menu
    How can I get it there ?
