P: PS Beta 25.4: Pen tool: Option/Alt shortcut key

I have encountered some difficulties with the pen tool in Photoshop 25.4. Since the latest update, the pen tool does not work as it should. For instance, when I try to remove an anchor point, the convert point tool does not switch on automatically. Also, the eyedropper tool appear when i press ALT button. These problems are affecting my workflow and productivity. I would appreciate any assistance or guidance on how to resolve this error. Thank you for your time and attention.

    The public beta version is for finding and reporting bugs to the Photoshop team. You can use the released version which does not have this bug.

        Fehler beim Zeichenstift-Werkzeug:

        Drücke ich beim Erstellen eines Pfades mit dem "Zeichenstift-Werkzeug" (P) nach einem der letzten Updates (aktuell 25.4.0 m.2455) die Alt-Taste auf einem Ankerpunkt, erscheint nun nicht mehr das gewünschte "Punkt-umwandeln-Werkzeug", sondern fälschlicher Weise die Pipette… (I)

        Bitte unbedingt zügig korrigieren, dass hier bei gedrückter Alt-Taste wieder das"Punkt-umwandeln-Werkzeug" erscheint. Danke.

          Dieser Fehler erschwert auch mir meine Arbeit gravierend.

          Bitte umgehend beheben. Niemand braucht hier die Pipette 😞

              ¡Hola, tengo este mismo problema!, y veo que desde el 18 de diciembre del 2023 aún no lo resuelven, ¿qué posibilidad existe de que esto lo pongan como prioridad? Ya que afecta el flujo de actividades de muchas personas que utilizan esta herramienta en su día a día.

                  @Mark Ithell It helped me to minimize the program and then expand it. I don't know how long this reminder was gone for, but for now the reminder is gone.

                    You can remove that temporarily by selecting the clone tool, clicking into your document (with no layer selected), which gives you an error...move that error pop-up over the orange box and click "OK"

                      So glad you amended the 'WRONG!' bit in you reponse, it read very 'wrong!' Thanks for the advice though, it's a good interim fix even though I've had to move my workspace around to aviod the annoying "Time to Update" box... unless anyone know's how to get rid of that?

                        Open Creative Cloud and go to Beta apps/Photoshop (Beta), click the three dots to the right, click "Other versions", install Photoshop Beta 25.2
