I absolutely miss the option Easy Setup in the dropdown of Final Cut Pro

In the dropdown menu of Final Cut Pro X 10.0.6 I'm missing the Easy Setup option. How is that possible and how cab I get this (back)?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.0.x)

I found all this in the Apple documentation:

Creating and Modifying Easy Setups

Final Cut Pro comes with Easy Setups for the most commonly used video formats, such as DV, HDV, DVCPRO HD, and uncompressed 4:2:2 video. If you routinely need a particular combination of presets, you can create a custom Easy Setup. You can also load additional Easy Setups that aren’t automatically installed with Final Cut Pro.

To choose an Easy Setup

  1. Choose Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup.Note: If this is the first time you’ve opened Final Cut Pro, the Easy Setup window appears automatically after the application opens.
  2. From the Format pop-up menu, choose a format that matches the footage you want to work with. You can select one of the following:
    • A video system, such as NTSC, PAL, or high definition (HD)
    • A specific codec, such as DV or HDV
  3. Click the Use pop-up menu to see all of the Easy Setups related to your choice in the Format pop-up menu.You can further refine the list by choosing a specific frame rate from the Rate pop-up menu.
  4. Choose an Easy Setup from the Use pop-up menu.

But not in my version of Final Cut Pro
