Control Panel when opened in Explorer is part of Windows, not a part of Classic Shell.

Click the blue "Small icons" link and change it to "Large icons". If that is still too small, you probably have a very high resolution, high DPI display. You must calculate the optimal pixels per inch (PPI) for your monitor size and resolution.

Go to this page: https://www.sven.de/dpi/ and enter your display's resolution and size. It will show you the actual PPI of your display.

Then open Windows Display Control Panel and click the option to set a custom size and specify the DPI there. Then log out of your Windows account and log in again. The Control Panel icons should be bigger now.

There is a setting on the Main Menu tab of Classic Start Menu settings called "Use categories view for Control Panel" if that's what you mean.
