Simple Items Copy And Move With Shortcuts Crashing Application

Question

Each time I attempt to utilize the "Move Tool" by pressing the ALT key in combination with a LEFT CLICK shortcut, the Photos Beta application unexpectedly shuts down, and unfortunately, it fails to retain any of the progress or memory associated with my current project.

Hi @M320896586c4y thank you for sharing the video. Does this same workflow work in Ps release version?

Make sure you have the latest Ps Beta: Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.3.0 20260111.m.3370 bf58f26 arm64 (beta, PublicBeta)

If this still happens....

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,
