The timeline should be at the bottom of the editor window, if you’re in the default design workspace. If you started in the mesh editor workspace then “design history” might be turned off, in which case you wouldn’t have a timeline. It looks like this:

If some of the icons are highlighted in yellow, those have errors, so, things like broken projection links, or missing objects for some operations. You can usually fix those and patch things up.

Edit: oh, sorry, just realized you were working from someone else’s file. That might not have design history turned on. The person who told you how to edit the extrusion operation has the right idea.
