missing features in Daz Studio - how do I fix this?

I use Daz Studio on two Windows machines, one's a "retired" gaming pc i built a few years ago, the other is an old Dell workstation pc that was given to me after the previous owner replaced the machines in his office. Both computers run on Windows 10 with gtx gpu's (the workstation has a 1660, the other has a 1060) and have Daz 4.12 pro installed but for some reason, the menu bars are structured differently from one another and some of the utilities are not available.. I've even tried uninstalling and reinstalling Daz on the workstation pc where this issue is.. I'm not sure if this makes any sense.. so I've provided screenshots. the first screenshot (the one in the middle of a render job) has everything available and fine.. the second is the one that is basically limiting my functionality, so to speak..
I hope I've explained myself well enough, and that there's something I can do to get the options identical in the software on both machines.

thank you for your time.

    Looks like you need to Update and Merge Menus from the Window -> Workspace menu.

    When you open a pane it'll be floating, and you'll want to dock it into the sidebar.  To do this, click and hold the floating pane's tab (not the pane frame) and drag it to the position in the sidebar you want.  This part isn't obvious, took me quite a while to figure out.  All the help videos are like "and now you dock it" and they don't say how.

    You can also open a pane as part of a group by right-click in an empty part of the tab well and selecting the option to add the pane (which will remove it from the  group it currently belongs to, if any).
