There is no such tab called data in android studio. data/data is the place where the android system stores your application and it's related fies,To see your application and related files you need to access the android file system.

In order to do that follow the below steps

  1. Run your app in an emulator or in a rooted android device
  2. open android device monitor as described in the image you posted
  3. on the left side of the window you will see devices tab click on the emulator/device on which your app is currently running.
  4. Click on file explorer tab and select data folder inside that you will find one more data folder select it and search for package name that matches your app package name and expand it..you will find your preference file if you already created one
