I am new to jmeter. I successfully installed jmeter into my windows machine. I opened "jmeter.bat" under apache-jmeter-4.0\bin. But the jmeter window is not showing the workbench section in the left panel. I have attached the screenshot below in the ApacheJmeter.

Workbench can be taken as a practice area or temporary storage as the components of workbench are not saved along with the Test Plan. A most important component in HTTPSTestScriptRecorder which can record the scripts directly and tester can put the load on those later on.
Step 1: Start the JMeter Window Test Plan node − is where the real test plan is kept. Workbench node − It simply provides a place to temporarily store test elements while not in use, for copy/paste purposes. When you save your test plan, Workbench items are not saved with it.
A test plan describes a series of steps JMeter will execute when run. A complete test plan will consist of one or more Thread Groups, logic controllers, sample generating controllers, listeners, timers, assertions, and configuration elements.
It's not a bug but a feature since JMeter 4:
Workbench has been dropped from UI, you can now use Non Test Elements as immediate children of Test Plan.
You can now use elements in Test Plan as you used previously in Workbench
You can see also an old question that asked why workbench is shown in the first place

You can find all features of Workbench here:
Navigate to Test Plan -> Add --> Non-test Elements, now you could see all required features of Workbench
