Pouvez-vous confirmer que tous les fichiers présents dans votre dossier ont la même extension (par exemple tous en .xlsx ou tous en .csv) ?
Si le dossier contient différents types de fichiers, Power Query peut désactiver l’option “Combiner les fichiers”.

Additionally, "Combine Binaries" creates a lot ( A LOT) of gruft that you don't really need nor want. Better to do that file contents append yourself.  I have a blog entry on that somewhere if you are interested.

Hi @Anonymous, "Combine Files" is only available for specific source-types (as far as I'm aware Excel, CSV, TXT, JSON, XML in Folder, SharePoint Folder, Azure Blob Storage, Azure Data Lake Storage): https://learn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/power-query/combine-files-overview

What are the source-type of the files you want to combine?

Also, to use "Combine Files", you first need to select a column that contains the file binaries (usually called "Content" with "Binary" values in each row). Is it still grayed out for you if you select your "Content"-column?
