According to PSP 2022 Help:

But in my PSP 2022 there is no "Display and Caching option:

I've looked in all of the left panel tabs, but can not find a Display and Caching" option anywhere. What gives? What am I missing here?

Welcome to the forum.

I suspect you are in the Essentials workspace which does not show Display and Caching. So right click in an open section of the workspace. You should get a dropdown men. Essentials will be ticked. So select Complete. It should then automatically change the workspace to Complete without requiring an OK. Now look at Preferences > General.

Spot on Ken! Thanks much for the help - greatly appreciated!

May I suggest that the directions in Help be modified to include a statement that you need to be in the Complete Workspace? May help others along the way.

Again, thanks!
Ken
