P: Transform/Resize is constrained by default - Want ability to go back to legacy behavior

hmm. Really? It should work.

Maybe recheck the spelling? Make sure it's a .txt file.

Thanks,
I did find the folder and created the file as you instructed above, but when I opened PS again, it didn't make any change to the new behavior. 

Top menu: Folder Options: View Tab: look for “Hidden Files and Folders” : check Show hidden files

Hey, I'm using Windows 10, and for some reason this folder you are talking about doesn't exist where you pointed. 
Any idea where to find it?
Thanks

One thing I am starting to be more aware of it when you click too far out of the transform bounding box, it stamps the change. It was only today that I realize I hate this after wanting to select all to rotate the entire image slightly.

Even if it's a tiny effort to have the cursor closer, these little things add up and are just annoying.

You just made my month!! A friend dropped a drink on my laptop so I had to get a new one and then after getting my computer all setup my Adobe apps were all reset so it has been a nightmare!!! One minute I can't get shift to constrain, the next I can't get it to stop. Hallelujah for you!!

Also, why on earth did they not send a notification in the product to tell us this?! 😉

THANK YOU!!!!

This is by far one of the most stupid and unnecessary changes!
They broke the most basic rule: Never fix what is not broken. 

Thanks Tracy. Yes John McAssey's manual fix works. But the PS team needs to hear us because a change can affect productivity across the whole PS user community effectively creating a massive loss of productivity worldwide. I know they understand this very well and take these things seriously. 

Adobe just HAD to be different, so they made it that you had to hold in Shift to constrain. Just about all other apps auto constrained and scaled based on the selection handle you scaled with. So all people started adopting Adobe's change... Now they introduce it as a "New Feature" instead of saying - sorry we messed up all these years.
