I'm not a mate expert, but usually such pannels are sort of
"containers" of widget, which you can add picking them from a list.
"Mint menu", "Clock", "Notification area" are some of such widgets,
while (I think) "MATE panel" is the container itself.

Well, at the beginning I thought "Window list" was the widget missing
in your panel, but since you get the version info by right-clicking on
the panel, I deduce actually it is there, so unfortunately I do not
know what to say more.

Anyway, you might try to add a widget to the panel (by right-clicking
in a free area of it, basically where you got the "MATE panel" version
info), and pick from the appearing list something which looks like a
window list, and even desktop list/selector.

Another possibility is that the "window list" widget dimension is too
small (for example if you accidentally dragged it to the right). If
you find it in the panel (as you actually did when you got its
version), just try to drag to the left.

Good luck!
