hank you for helping me !

Lightroom : les métadonnées ne s'affichent plus dans le panneau des métadonnées (y compris le nom des fichiers des images) !
Le nom des fichiers des images apparaît cependant en bas des photos.
Merci de m'aider !

    Yes that's it ! I'm ashamed ..
    The icon does not have the shape of an eye when the metadata is not displayed and I did not think to click.
    I apologize again and thank you all

    What you can try first is to reset the preferences to the default settings. 

    Reset Procedure: 

    • Close Lightroom. 
    • Windows: Hold down [Alt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom. 
      Mac: Hold down [Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom. 
    • Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog. 
    • Close Lightroom. 
    • Restart Lightroom. 

     

    It's recommended to backup your preferences before you reset the preferences to the default settings:
