Please go to Help>System Info… and provide us with your software's installed version number. 

You posted that you are using version 8.3, which is not Classic, but later identified your version as Classic. We need to know for sure which version you are using.

 

Thanks!

when tagging photo (P) or (X) on LrC, the white or black flag does'nt appear on the thumbnail.

It does not happen each time but sometimes. If I close LrC then re open it, it works fine again

Hi @Sylvain1674! Welcome to the community! 

Just to clarify, are you talking about Lightroom (cloud-based) or Lightroom Classic? Could you share a screenshot? I assume you mean Lightroom since you mentioned you're on version 8.3, which is the latest version. The keyboard shortcuts for picking and rejecting flags in Lightroom are Z and X.

If you're using Lightroom Classic (latest version is 14.3), the shortcuts are X and P, and the flags do appear in the thumbnails.

Thanks a bunch!

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
