P: I have no text cursor/highlight, no bounding boxes, or selection edges working on CMYK documents

I just updated photoshop to 2019 20.0 and now the text tool is misbehaving. I see no cursor and I can't select tpe. There is just nothing. I obviously disabled the stupid lorum ipsum nonsense, so when I click with the text tool, there is absolutely no indicatation that anything is happening. My coworker has the same problem and reset his preferences which fixed nothing.
Running Sierra 10.12.6

    The work around is helpful but a bandaid for those who cannot upgrade to the latest version:

    This issue should be fixed in the current version, Photoshop 2020 v21.x or later. Let us know if you're still having trouble."

    Can we get a fix for CC19 please?

    Opened an RGB file first, and then the tools worked in CMYK.

    Why does it seem like the more versions of Photoshop Adobe creates, the shittier they work?

    Could not agree more. For a professional app like this it is shameful. They should stop charging us while they fix this nonsense! I also have been a user for well over 20 years and this (20.0.07) is the worst release ever.
