Thanks, Dave. I see now how this was happening. Every new element I created via copy & paste was being created inside the folder with the color overlay on it. Alas, not a bug. I just didn't realize what was going on. Thanks. *laughs* "Bug" = anything that doesn't do what I want it to!

It was just this doc. I posted a new reply with a solution. Thanks Ged.

Nope. Nothing in place that would change the colors as far as I can tell. SOLUTION! This is clearly some sort of bug. The 5 stars that were blue were all in a folder. I had applied the blue overlay to the entire folder. This is what caused the problem -- still not clear WHY this would be a problem, but as soon as I removed the color overlay from the folder, everything is working normally again. I've now applied color overlay to the full stars (one smart object) and the empty stars (another smart object). No folder with color overlays for me anymore! Thanks for your help looking into this everyone.

Hi Ged, Thanks for the reply. Adobe Photoshop Version: 19.1.6 Windows 10 I took your suggestion and tried resetting preferences upon exit. Problem still occurring.

Hi everyone, Yesterday I created some stars and used color overlay on them to make them blue. I then linked the 5 layers of the stars together. When I came back to my computer today, everything I do in Photoshop turns blue! For example: a) Creating a new rectangle, it appears blue on the canvas, even though the Fill color shows it as yellow and the layer in the layer panel shows it as yellow. FYI, when I export to PNG, the rectangle remains blue. b) When I press Ctrl+Alt and drag text WITH the blue stars the text suddenly becomes blue too. Changing the text color does not work, just like it didn't work with the rectangle above. c) When I copy a screenshot and paste it onto my canvas, the entire screenshot appears on the canvas as just one big blue rectangle. However, if I first copy and paste one of the text boxes and THEN copy & paste the screenshot, it pastes like normal. Any idea why this is happening and how to resolve? It's really really holding up my work. Thanks!

I didn't use it because the problems it was described as resolving did not seem relevant to my issue. I'll give it a try anyway and let you know the result. Thanks Abambo.

Hi, My Samsung laptop is less than 1 year from purchase. It's been very fast and a great machine...up until I installed Adobe CC. Ever since I installed Adobe CC and Photoshop, every couple of minutes the mouse clicks don't react for a good 30 to 60 seconds, sometimes even causing the Windows 10 blue circle to indicate that the computer is "processing" a task. This occurs without Photoshop even being open and even with only just a few browser tabs opened. I uninstalled Photoshop. Then uninstalled Adobe CC with the official uninstaller program. My brand new computer is still stalling on simple tasks--and, despite having "uninstalled" Adobe CC, I still see the folder in windows explorer called "Adobe CC Files". Please help! I want my machine to work fast again--I'm losing precious time at work whenever the computer hangs for these basic tasks! Thanks!!
