Manage NUGET Packages menu missing after update

I have recently updated the package manager (VSIX extension) for NUGET to version 3.5. Afterwards I noticed the UI is missing:

enter image description here

Normally there is a 3rd menu item available enter image description here

(right between console and settings menu items), which opens the dialog for searching, installing, updating and removing nuget packages.

I tried to uninstall/reinstall it, but had no luck. Also looking in Google and on the NuGET site did not help me finding an answer.

Can someone help, please?
