The important thing is to select the non-www URL as your preferred option, as Marlinda explained.
Always use //yoursitename without the www to send all traffic.

Thank you

See Screenshot.
If it has never been ticked, could you take a screenshot of where you see that zero indexed, and add it in a reply here so I can figure out why that is so. ~Jude
Go into your site's dashboard.
Click on the wheel thing to the right, click site settings and choose your preferred version.
This is the task I am trying to complete from Google Search Console.
