You have to unlock it. Hit T and find it in the menu there.
You can also right click on any item in a crafting bench that is locked. It says something like "Press C to unlock". I then takes you to the technology with the item that unlocks it selected. You can then just unlock it quickly from there.

Is the windmill connected to the furnace? Each powered workbench requires a loop of rope going between the windmill and the workbench. Also, there are a couple of parts for the windmill, the base and the blades.

So I looked at my Powered Refining Furnace. I have two windmills powering mine (powers another bench too). Mine says 190/100 for the power, so I think that means 90 extra. When I only had one, it said not powered, so probably not the problem that I initially had where I couldn't craft steel.

The picture shows stuff in another bench, the steel tools for the Craftsman Bench. You aren't trying to craft those items, that are all locked. You aren't trying to craft those in the furnace, are you? You unlock the steel tools, steel weapons, and steel armor separately from the stuff you show unlocked (steel and other things).

Please show a screenshort in the Powered Refining Furnace which is powered by a windmill and contains Coking Coal.

I'm sure you're showing the Blast Furnace menu, not Powered Refining Furnace.

No mate that is the Powered Refining Furnace. After 130 hours i can't progress smhhh. Seems it's bugged. It's like the Game doesn't recognise that it is a Powered Refining Furnace.
Click on the Steel Ingots and see if you have unchecked Meteorite Ore and Mysterious Metal Chunks by mistake?

Yes, I would guess it is something like this. So many of us are using the powered refining forge with no problems (like 20%, according to the achievement have done this).

Frustrating to read posts in here where people just quit playing when they can't figure out how to progress and just assume it must be a bug in the game and not something they just haven't figured out.

I'll admit, getting your first steel ingot is a challenge and a bit more complicated than it maybe needs to be. I ended up making one bench that was powered thinking it was needed. Also took me a bit to figure out how to make the metal plates and how to make and connect the windmill to power this thing. Finally did it all though and have steel crafting away in my base starting a few days ago.

Now my next big challenge is to find that perfect armorer and weapon crafter, to get the legendary gear crafted. At this point I can only craft to the highest quality for iron and below gear.

So show a screenshot inside the Powered Refining Furnace.

You said from the very beginning that you have a locked recipe.
A lock is a padlock icon on a recipe.
At the same time, you showed a screenshot where you have an anvil icon, which means that the recipe is for another workbench or that an upgrade is needed for the workstation.
Now you say that steel smelting is also unavailable in your Powered Refining Furnace. Well, show a screenshot.
What icon? Maybe you don't have any icon there, and the recipe is just red and you confuse a lack of resources with a lock, because you have already shown that you confuse concepts and do not see the difference between a locked recipe and something else.

SS SuperStructures Mod breaks the Powered Refined Furnace. Did a fresh install with mod disabled and it worked.
