P: Free transform does not work as usual

Hi @KnoTho could you please share any screenshots of what you are seeing? Others say the issue is fixed for not for you?

Make sure you have the latest Ps beta: Adobe Photoshop Version: 26.5.0 20250212.m.2973 455b503 arm64

1. Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)


C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings

Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut
With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

2. It may help if we could see your Photoshop beta System Info. Launch Photoshop beta, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.  

Thanks,

The bug is bag in the current beta.
PLEASE, stop doing the same mistake over and over again.
Fix this and keep it fixed.

Hi, ok, now everything works fine in the Beta v., thanks. I hope to be able to use the new, great, feature in Photoshop soon.

I updated to the latest version and it is fixed - thanks!

This was corrected in beta 23.3.0 20241222.m.2915

<p>Current version is 20250104.m.2928.

If you still have this problem, make sure you've updated to the latest version. 

Also, this IS the BETA version. Problems are gonna happen as new features are continually added and we find them, report them  and they fix them. 

It has no bearing on the final product. 

New version - not working correctly:

Good old Photoshop - a useful menu that's sadly gone:

Hi, So I am using PS Beta, and since 2 days now my free transform tool is not working. I use CTRL+T to activate the layer transform and when i right click on the layer for options like distort nothing happens. I have tried resetting my preferences, also turned on legacy transform tool, and most of the suggested corrections on adobe forum but nothing seems to work. Please help

Updated to 26.3 Beta to resolve a problem in 26.1. Now I'm unable to open images from Explorer with Photoshop Beta. Nor can I set Photoshop Beta as default for any image type. 

Instead, when right-clicking an image to "open with" or when selecting a default app for a file type in Windows, PS Beta doesn't appear in the apps list. If I "choose another app" it doesn't come up there either. If I then browse for the app and select Photoshop.exe from the Photoshop Beta folder, the "Choose an app" window just pops open again. I can go through this process over and over and it just loops back every time.
