Apple Releases Second Public Beta of macOS Ventura 13.1

Yes. Would be interested to hear if System Preferences has been updated/improved/reverted to the old version in 13.1.

Just to reiterate when you open system preferences be sure to take advantage of VIEW pulldown menu. That way you can access some system settings directly even if that are nestled in the system settings hierarchy.

Just want to say: thank you for always sharing helpful information in regards to things like this.

So tiresome to see the same posts about the Settings app every single article, as if the old Preferences layout was some perfect implementation.

Yes! @Realityck is truly a diamond in the rough.

Hopefully 13.1 will fix the issue that files cannot be deleted. 13.0.1 doesn't fixed it yet. :confused:

Did you check permissions (get info). Thats a odd issue I haven't seen.
