Adjustment layers not showing mask when selected in Photoshop CC 2020 21.2.2
I'm working through some tutorials on Photoshop and whenever the tutor adds an "New Adjustment Layer" it comes with a "mask". On my copy of Photoshop CC 2020 21.2.2 there is no "mask" being added so what is the benefit of using the "New Adjustment Layer" over just a plain "adjustment" e.g. image/adjustment/brightness-contrast" as compared to "Layer/New Adjustment layer/brightness-contrast"? As it stands I have to add the "mask" manually for it to work. Has the "mask" been done away with on the latest version of Photoshop CC 2020? Or have I missed a setting somewhere along the line?
Your help would be much appreciated. Thanking you in advance.

ps. I am on a Macbook Pro 16 running the latest version of Catalina should that make any difference.
