Just upgraded my Node-red system on windows from 2.6 to 3.13, Since this upgrade, I can't rename any flow (new or old), when double clicking on the flow, it opens a window but the property tab is not showing.

Anyone hve the same issue ? is there a quick fix ?

thanks for any help

Hi,  
Have you tried restarting Node-RED and reloading your browser?  
Do you see an error in the logs and in the browser console?
