Action (gear) button in Finder

I have no action/gear button on my finder window. I discovered it while trying to follow instructions on how to delete backups/files from Time Machine. Can anyone tell me how to restore the gear button in Finder? Thankyou

Ally,

Open a Finder window (this won't work with just the Desktop active). From the Menu Bar (top of the display), choose View>Customize Toolbar.... Find the "Action" button, and drag it where you'd like it. Confirm your changes, and you're done.
