No cover when converted to MOBI

2/ If you deleted manually over USB, also remove the corresponding thumbnails in the system/thumbnails folder.
3/ If you manually deleted over USB, unplug & eject once before going any further, to let the Kindle catch up and update its internal catalog.

4/ Make sure your stuff was converted *without* the 'Enable sharing' in the MOBI output settings, and that the tag set to trigger the PDOC flag isn't part of the tags of your books. Reconvert if needed.
5/ Send books via Calibre's "Send To Device".
6/ Unplug & eject. You get covers & no PDOC banner. If you still get a PDOC banner, check 4/.
I'm completely new to this program and everything to do with converting. I just recently started trying to upload downloaded books and I've tried to follow all of the instructions listed in this thread but I've come to a dead end in trying to find 4/ "Enable sharing".... There is no block with that option. The only things listed are what you see in the attachment. Everything works but the cover when I send the book to my PW Kindle. What am I missing?
