I have tried finder preferences sidebar and have checked the box for applications and have ticked the box
It still does not add applications to my sidebar
thank you for your help in advance
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.4
Is certainly works here in Ventura 13.5
First image is Finder >> Setting
2nd Image is what I get in Finder with above enabled
1 - Restart in Safe Mode. This will perform a Disk Repair, clear cache files and only load Apple Software, extensions and fonts. The boot up will be slow and can take some time - Normal.
2 - Safe Mode will also eliminate Third Party Software, extensions and drivers from loading. It will only load the Minimum amount of Core Apple Processes to allow the the computer to function at a reduced Level of Performance
3 - Does the issue present in this mode ?
4 - Sometimes a Safe Boot followed by a Normal Boot will just put things right.🤞

In addition to what P. Phillips said:
a) you may try dragging the Applications folder to the Sidebar; does that work?
b) sometimes Finder preferences can get corrupted; in that case, deleting the preferences and relaunching the Finder can help.
