I am taking a class about using adobe capture patterns in Photoshop. When I go into the edit menu and select presets, then preset manager, I am only given two options: contours and tools. The prerecorded class says I should have: brushes, swatches, gradients, styles, patterns, and custom shapes all in the "preset manager type" drop down menu as options. I do not. I am trying to find out how to get these options. I am working with windows. I have not had any previous versions of photoshop installed, and I am using the CC version which provides me with the latest updates regularly.

That is an outdated method. Presets now all have their own options in the Window menu and are managed in their respective panels:
Brushes, Patterns, Gradients, Styles, Swatches.
