My iMac software is HighSierra 10.13.6 and I don't have the Settings icon and software update feature in my System Preferences. I need to control my software updates. I have several 32-bit apps that I am unable to change at this time, so upgrading must be delayed.


Can anyone tell me how to find the software update feature, so I can turn off automatic updates?


Thanks
