## Description

**Steps to reproduce**

1.  Install OpenProject without seeds.

**Actual behavior**

  - The Projects menu is not visible in top menu.

**Expected behavior**

  - The Projects menu is visible in top menu.

**Notes**  
This is just a cosmetic thing, but it makes impossible to create projects for non-admin users until an admin user is not creating a project.  
In case the 1st project is created by the admin, the menu appears and non-admin users (with defined Global Role) can create projects.
