HELP: mac looses system settings window

after 1-2 days after re-starting my mac mini m1 2020, 16GB, ventura 13.4.1 I loose the system settings window.

Starting system setting shows it is active but does not display any window. After I restarting the mac everything is back to normal

I tried apple help, but that was useless (check for viruses and reinstall ) - which I did, no change.

It does not happen immediately after restart, but somewhere within 48 hours.

Only indigo runs on the mac (with many plugins.).

any suggestions?

Monitor attached or not?

No Monitor. Only a dongle that simulates a monitor

And you're using screen sharing to access the Mac? Try changing the screen resolution next time it happens. I think the Window Manager is getting confused about the size of the screen and it's putting that window outside the visible screen.

I have attached a physical monitor. And will check if thy changes any thing

Changing screen res does not work when system settings does not open

It seems like this is a reported problem with Ventura and the people that resolved the issue did a factory reset back to an older MacOS

I can confirm that using a physical monitor does not solve the problem.
The systems setting is broken again after 2 days

I guess
either:
- full backup (twice) .. full factory reset to 2020 (when I bought the mini-m1) .. upgrade to current os ... reinstall backup.. that is likely a better part of a day.
or:
- wait for the next MAC OS to fix it, and restart mac in the mean time if I need to access systems settings

For what it’s worth, I haven’t seen that problem while using VNC.
