How to find 'Settings' in ubuntu 18.04?

Tags:

ubuntu-18.04

'Settings' was appearing in 'Show Applications' on the left bottom corner when I had just installed Ubuntu 18.04, but it has disappeared (both in 'Frequent' as in 'All'). Where else may one find it?

I've learned that 'Settings' can be found by typing:

gnome-control-center

For some reason, when I typed it, I found that it wasn't installed (anymore !). So I did:

sudo apt-get install gnome-control-center

Now 'Settings' appears in 'Show Applications' again.
