Press the alt key and use Tools on the Menu Bar or use the Add On button showing clearly in the main menu of the AppMenu in your screenshot.

I have no problem with the Add ons button. It allows me to download the Mail Merge add on - it's in my download folder - but I can't see how to install it from that page. All help gratefully received!
