Follow the instructions in the post marked solution. Just enable the add-on and turn on Lock View Rotation

I don’t see any “lock view rotation” addon available in 3.4, any ideas?

Great, but what do you do with that, it’s just a load of code?!

You download it and install it, same as any other add-on When you click on the Install button for add-ons, you can install a zip or a .py file, either one works

Thanks, i got it working!

Just a heads up for any other noobs:

To get it working, extract the .py file, open in notepad and change the text to match your Blender version. Save and then install the addon. See image below.
