What you need is to learn all about the basics, starting with the Exposure Triangle relationship....ISO setting, shutter speed and aperture setting. There should be a "Getting Started" guide with the camera. Look on Canon Support for beginner and advance manuals. Look on Amazon for a book on whatever camera you have, that starts with the basics.
There is much to learn about using a modern camera. It's not all going to happen here.

There are no best settings that will fit every need, if there were they would be pre set. Settings will vary depending on what you are shooting, the light, whether you are using a tripod or handholding, if you are trying to show motion, the lens you are using , etc. you will need to learn as you use the camera. I’ve been a photographer for several years and I know photography, but I just bought my first Canon. (R6 MarkII) a few months ago and I am still learning about it. I know I want to shoot wildlife with a R200-800 lens, so I was able to look up specific information on settings on you tube about the camera and wildlife shooting with it. Different people have different settings, but I was able to edtablish baselines that I could modify for my use and preferences.
mid you would give an idea of what camera and lens combination you have and what you want to do with it, you will probably get lots of suggested settings.
Definitely read about the exposure triangle and definitely play with the camera and different settings. If you have not done so, download the pdf users manual, it searchable and full of specific information on your camera.
There is definitely a learning curve, but well worth it.
