Describe how to navigate to your personal settings in Salesforce.
While administrators will spend most of their time in the setup menu, there is a separate configuration menu dedicated to personal user settings. This menu gives users the ability to update their information, download desktop applications (e.g. Salesforce for Outlook), and update other settings.
This menu is in slightly different locations based on the user interface you are using as well as other settings:
- The Personal Settings menu in Lightning Experience is in a separate area that the setup menu
- The Personal Settings menu in Classic with “Enable Improved Setup User Interface” enabled is in a separate area than the setup menu
- The Personal Settings menu in Classic with “Enable Improved Setup User Interface” disabled is within the setup menu
