System extension block

There's this app I'm trying to get and it's saying that System extension is blocked and to go to settings to unblock it, when I am there though I don't see the thing that allows me to unblock it.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.2

You need to go to the "Security & Privacy" System Preferences (first tab within this pane I believe), there should be a notice & button near the bottom of the System Preferences with the extension or software listed asking for approval to be installed/used. This button may only appear for a short period of time, so check after attempt to run the app, or you may need to check immediately after booting the Mac.
