Windows 10 boot into UEFI firmware settings missing

I have Dell Inspiron 15R 5537,. i installed  Windows 8 and yesterday updated it inot window 10. Now my UEFI Firmware Settings" option is missing from the Windows advanced startup options. 

Is there a method or driver that allows for enabling the UEFI Firmware Settings menu entry? 
I'm even willing to reinstall the fresh Window agin, though I also can't seem to boot from CD/DVD at this point.

thanks for your reply.
