Issues with cursor and selections

Hi there, I am having issues with selecting a range to edit using the cursor. It seems that there is a difference from what my experience has been in the past. My issue is that the area I want to select, for example delete, is locked in and I cannot edit a portion that is more on a macro level, in other words shorter. Has there been a modification in regards to how Audacity functions? Not sure I made my point clearly. It seems the shortest amount of time I can select is a quarter of a second, again lets say I wanted to modify a moment in the timeline that is tighter than that (delete, alter volume etc.). I cannot, highlight a length is time that is shorter than that. Strange.

You probably have snapping turned on. Turning it off will fix that.

Oh that makes total sense. Now to find it in the menu

Okay this may sound dumb but I cannot find the snap box

Duh. I found it lol. Hey thank you!! This was a big help!!!
