Browser question - missing Meta Data bar

I came across this in the help file.  So I went to look for it and I don't seem to have a "Meta Data Bar" at the bottom of my browser.  I undocked my browser, blew it up to a larger size, set the view to details and was able to sort by clicking on the (now-visible) column headers.  Is Column Heading = Meta Data bar and Bottom = Top?  Sorting would be OK, but multi-filtering sorting by date / filetype / name would be helpful for navigating  folders containing hundreds of files.  There doesn't seem to be a way to update the location of "Project files" shortcut.  I have it changed in my preferences, but it continues to go to some other location, and I can't delete the "project files" shortcut from browser. 

From the Help file:

To sort media files in the Media Browser


By default, media is displayed alphabetically without columns or column headers. To sort by a specific parameter, click the parameter field in the Meta Data bar, which is located at the bottom of the Browser. To sort in reverse, click the desired parameter field in the Meta Data bar again.
