How do I return my T5i to factory default settings? I am having problems with the flash and the metering and think I may have inadvertantly changed a setting. Appreciate any help. Thanks

Is it normal that this doesn't appear on the A+ mode? I found it on the P.

What you have to know is that the "A" and "A+" modes are Canon's "Serious cameras for Dummies" settings, with many options crippled or omitted. An experienced photographer, like yourself, who joins the Canon user cohort, should start with "P" mode and proceed from there.
