This doesn’t mean that the functionality is not accessible. It is just hidden.
Also the admin navigation bar is cleaned as well.
The plugin is intended to be used by developers/designers who manage WordPress on behalf of their clients.
Clients don’t need to know or see anything about plugins, themes, available updates etc.
If you end up locking yourself out add this line to your wp-config.php file just right after the opening <?php tag.
