I have made plenty of adjustments to the settings of my Macbook to make it more comfortable to use. Like for example, setting hot corners, changing icon sizes and locations and etc. Now I want to fully reset my Mac for a fresh start, so I was wondering will my settings return after I login or do I have to do everything again from the start?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.1

Time Machine backs up your entire Mac. When you restore from Time Machine, everything will be restored, including your settings.

Hello!
You can use Time Machine to backup your Mac, including settings: Back up your Mac with Time Machine - Apple Support.
To use Time Machine, you need an external storage device. If you don't have one, I'd recommend the Crucial X8 1TB Portable SSD - Crucial.

Is there a way to backup MacOS settings?
