That's normal. Below "Default Editor" you should have "Default WYSIWYG
Editor" as in
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Administration+Application#HEditModeSettings
. That is the property that should list CKEditor as a possible value. But
CKEditor should be the default WYSIWYG editor in XWiki 8.4.1 even if you
leave this property unset.

XWiki 8.4.1 is using CKEditor 1.9 which doesn't extend the edit menu, see
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CKEDITOR-96 .

Did you upgrade to 8.4.1 from a previous version? It may be the case that
CKEditor was not upgraded properly. Or maybe you didn't clear the browser
cache.

It seems CKEditor was still not upgraded properly.
