Can't enable right-click on new Mac mouse

Hi there - I've just bought a 2023 24 inch iMac.

I can't seem to set up the Mouse to right click. The support article from Apple says to go to System Setting > Mouse then click the secondary click pop-up menu. None of this seems to exist on my Mac - I have no Mouse option in the sidebar and when I search and find Mouse settings there are no secondary click options.

This is the support page

Right-click on Mac – Apple Support (UK)

Please help

Thanks

Mouse secondary click set to the left side I have bluetooth mouse (not a Magic Mouse) connected to my iMac Pro and the right click stopped working. By mistake I have managed to change the secondary click to left side and now the only thing I can do is to right click. I cannot change it back to original setting as the right click does not work and when I click left side, it opens the original right side menu. I don't have trackpad or Magic Mouse. is it possible to somehow change to the original setting please?
