So if you are not seeing it there, please tell us what version of MuseScore you are using, and what language you are using if not US English. You might also try going to Edit / Preferences and updaitng the translation.

Hmm, not present for me either, 2.0.3 AppImage on Ubuntu, just updated my US English translation yesterday. Maybe the documentation is just out of date? Screenshot shows quite a few other discrepancies as well compared to what I see (eg, screenshot shows "Local Handbook" but not "Ask for Help", etc).

I recall from a forum discussion that this is deliberately not there on Linux, since distributions commonly don't actually have the update available.
