I don't know about the unchecked menu ... it just works here.
I can see the video so I don't care or even look at in the menu is checked or unchecked ... never have
I don't think it's relevant to you not being able to see the video.
 

I meant is this screen snapshot (right clicked over the video track) normal ?

There is no checked mark icon next to the Open Video View
that could be checked or unchecked..
Is this what you see on your video track (right clicked over the video track)  ?

I don't know.

And I ask again the question: 
is this normal ??

Do you have the "Big Time" view enabled (in Views)? - looks like Big Time with SMPTE toggled.

I think you might be looking at the "Big Time" window and thinking it's the video display window.
Try the menu at the top, "Views" and then choose "Video".

Yes.
I just must changed it before snapshoting the picture..

IIRC - it's been a long time since I've done anything with Video in SONAR - you can only display the video if you turn off thumbnails. Maybe that has changed more recently -

Not for me on X3 but I rarely use thumbnails.

Here is an overall snapshot of my program

I don't think I had selected Big Time anytime..
And remember, when I open my project I can clearly see very shortly
the image of where my video cursor is positionned to.
