# Settings (System) {#system-settings}

<!-- TODO: no Markdown rendering for "versionchanged" -->

This module has been moved from Admin tools to
System.

Only available if [`typo3/cms-install`](https://packagist.org/packages/typo3/cms-install) is installed.

The backend module **System > Settings** offers tools
to system maintainers regarding **global** settings that influence the complete
TYPO3 installation.
