Those are the two opposite functions.

With two or more objects selected you can create, Make a Compound Path. The Release command is greyed or inactive. 

And when you select a Compound Path the command available is Release where each object and its path is separated and does not interact with any other.

It's there in your screenshot. 4th from bottom, not under 'Path'.
