ubject: Photoshop 27.10.0 – Active selection is no longer automatically applied to the Crop Tool

Since updating to Photoshop 27.10.0 on Windows, a previously working feature no longer works.

Steps to reproduce:

Create a selection using the Rectangular Marquee Tool.
Keep the selection active.
Press C to activate the Crop Tool.

Expected behavior:

The Crop Tool should automatically use the existing selection as the crop boundaries.

Actual behavior:

The Crop Tool no longer recognizes or adopts the active selection. I now have to use Image → Crop instead.

This feature worked perfectly in previous Photoshop versions and was an important part of my regular workflow.

Please investigate and fix this regression.

System information:

Adobe Photoshop 27.10.0
Windows 10/11

Do you have ‘Classic Mode’ checked in the crop tool? Unchecking it works as expected. This was in v28.0 but I also checked an older version and it worked the same way

It intrigued me, and I just checked. It works for me, on the same OS as you.
So, this is probably a shortcut issue (wild guess here)
Does C also works when no selection is active? (does C selects the crop tool?)

The last version is 28.0, so try to update (and make sure you transfer your preferences when asked) and see if that solves it!
