Dear community,
Why does Finder move from desktop to desktop on MacOS Ventura.
After the update it does that all the time and it is rather frustrating.
Not using stage manager yet - afraid to start using it with issues as such, I prefer good old desktops (years ago we used to call them spaces). If I have a finder window at say "desktop 2" I want it to stay there, not follow me around in whichever desktop I use.
How does it stop?
Thank you!

It is up to you to decide how you want Finder, or any other application, to behave.
Click and hold the Dock icon, and then under Options you can choose "All Desktops" (which, by your description, seems to be selected, "None", or "Desktop on Display n" (if you have more than one display) or "This Desktop" (if you have just one display with multiple Spaces).

With the Finder on the Desktop you want, right/control click on the Finder icon and choose "This Desktop" from "Options".
Yes and no. I didn't mention "Desktop on Display n". 😎
Thank you both, guys!
You're welcome.
