Also, is it just shooter's preference for which file management is best? I don't have a problem with Nemo so far but if there's better out there, any suggestions?

Thanks for any help!

I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "control center". If you mean the "System Settings", personally one of the quickest ways is:

Right mouse click on the desktop.

Select Change Desktop Background (opens that setting box).

Select the arrow in the top left (opens the System Settings).

Alternatively and possibly quicker:

Click the "menu" button.

In the search box, start to type: system settings

Select System Settings.

Edit:

Another way if you want to launch it from a terminal, type cinnamon-settings.

Sorry for the confusion, this is my first OS I'm trying to learn the "guts" of so I'm new to the terminology. I did mean System Settings as you said. However, is there a way to pull this up from the terminal? If not, I totally get it but I'm trying to see if I can run as much as I can from the terminal. Thank you for the help!
