To use Application Wizard, you must turn it on.
Open the Application Wizard pane in System Preferences and click the ON/OFF switch.
When Application Wizard is turned on, you can access the Open, Quit, Switch, and Special menus in three ways: using the menu panel, from the menu bar, and using keyboard shortcuts.
When Application Wizard is turned off, menus are not accessible, single application mode cannot be used, and keyboard shortcuts are inactive, but you can edit groups, custom applications, window restoration, menus, and keyboard shortcuts using the Application Wizard pane in System Preferences.
