Sidebar & toolbar not accessible

Hey everyone

on Finder app I do not have the possible to show the sidebar neither the toolbar ( apparently they are linked if I understood correctly what I read... but not sure to get the reason why they are linked), they are both greyed out.

Couple of days ago I was able to show or to hide them.

I surely did something wrong but what....

Thx for the help

[Edit] my previous comment is true only on full page. If I am not on full page mode, the hide toolbar option is accessible. and the touch combination active.

is it normal mode??

Normal, yes.
