[SOLVED] xmp not generated

W11-64

LrC 14.5.1

When I put a modification on the picture, the XMP file is not générated.

In the catalog preferences, the "write automaticly..." is on, and the tag is not "in pause"

Previously, it worked  and I have the XMP 

I have .DNG files (is it a problem with that ?)

Thanks

DNG files do not have a separate XMP file, only proprietary raw files do. The metadata are stored in the header of the DNG. Same for all RGB file types (JPG, TIF, PSD).
