Hello together,

i have problem with Altium Designer:

The button "Favorite Interactive Routing Via Size" is missing???
Normally it should be under Preferences->PCB Editor->Interactive Routing

But there is nothing, i´ve attached some picture how it should be and how it is.

Thanks for your help guys

Had the same issue this morning and filed a support case in Altium technical support. This problem seems to have something to do with changes they have made to via templates:
https://techdocs.altium.com/display/ADOH/Pad+&+Via+Templates+and+Libraries#Pad and Via Templates

WORKAROUND:
We will see from the support if this is a bug or an extremely poorly documented intended change. In any case there IS a workaround. With those templates mentioned above if you add a via, change its size and then press SHIFT+V while routing to select via size, any via size present in your design will be available from the list. So just edit the first via of a given size manually and then use it as template. Logical, but should be documented :/ Lost 3 hours to this problem.
