Thank you so much

The button is no longer available. Click Track header (block in left column of Timeline) > Properties > Blend Mode.

“Over” is default, but now you can also choose “None”

Thank you, so how can I do the “mask” without that button?
I am so confused, haha…

You do not need that button to use the Mask. The software changes and tutorials become out-of-date. Skip the steps that require the compositing button. There are also many questions about how to use Mask here. You should search; I am not going to do it for you.

Thank you, I will figure it out!

Here is a screenshot without steps. Nothing needs to be done with Blend Mode in track Properties:
