Microsoft SQL Server 2019.Database Diagram not showing relationship and objects without dependencies

Hi Everyone. I have this situation.

 

After restore a database backup from another instance and generate Database Diagrams with apparently success, the diagrams are not showing any relationship between the tables. And when I see the dependencies for any table, there are no dependecies. The backup is from a commercial POS software that is been used for many business in my country.

 

What can cause relationships to not appear? 

 

I do that before (restore and generate database diagrams) without problems.

 

Best regards,

 

Francisco

I am curious also, after a restore from a backup my main database diagram is absolutely empty. Has not been a problem in the past 9 years
