What do you mean? You can still open control panel from XP/Vista and basically every option menu still points to the same shit that hasn't changed since Windows 95. Go open device manager and go to the properties of any device and you get like XP stuff at newest. Event Viewer, Disk Management, and many other high level panels haven't changed from XP.

90 percent of windows menus are still the same as 2000, even on the consumer side. And they're not virtually identical, they ARE identical.

You misspelled "Windows 3.1"

Lol, honestly, that's probably fair. My memory basically ends at 95 though and I don't remember any 3.1 menus well enough to make a call on that distinction.
