The Finder Preferences are on the Finder application menu in Monterey and prior operating system releases, but on Ventura, Apple changed the name to Settings.

Settings in Finder Macbook Pro Monterey 12.6.7 I'm having troubles with Finder. (Specifically, it isn't recognizing my flash drive. even though I used it a couple months ago.) To find a fix, I've consulted numerous sites online, every one of which directed me to open settings (aka preferences), but there is no such thing in Finder that I can find. And ideas?
