Hello, I am using Adobe Photoshop Version: 23.4.1 and since yesterday every time I select the clone stamp tool I get this error "Could not complete your request because of program error" Anyone have any idea to fix this please? Thank you 🙂 

 

You need to ask program questions in the forum for the program you are using

I usually see this error when a computer needs maintenance. Often, it's not reading the input device (mouse, trackpad...) correctly at the system level. This would especially be the most likely case, if you didn't update or change your Photoshop installation since day before yesterday.
Usually, this can often be fixed by a simple computer restart. If that fails to do it, please try uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop. If THAT doesn't do it, please do a CLEAN uninstall and reinstallation of the program (https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html)

If none of these work, the issue is very likely a miscommunication of your input device at the system level, and your OS may need maintenance.
