I may be doing something wrong but i cant seem to find the answer. Im trying to save a brush as a new brush tool preset, only it wont show up in the tool presets. I click load tool presets, nothing there.....Really im just trying to save the brushes i like so they are more acessible than scrolling through the billions of options in the brushes library that you cant seem to filter....There has to be a better way to do this, cmon adobe. someone help! Thanks.

Yes theres a brush folder in my preset tools folder, saved it there and cant seem to remove it

Hi, I have same problem with tool presets, wont save new ones and also I can import file with multiple brushes, mixer brushes and similar from the older version and it works but next time when I start Photoshop they are all gone like I never loaded tools. I am using 2020 new version on updated Windows 10 and have this problem just for tool presets, its saves brushes and it saves layout of the working area.

What is interesting is that everytime I wanted to do something with the tools pop up message was thare that I should try and use them converted to brushes, I do not like that idea but until support from Adobe don't respond I guess I will have too. Thing is for years I used Brusherator and made all the tools and actions as small panel board they behave like shourtcuts, now they are useles and I have to spend good hour just to set up converted tools from brushes on new Brusherator. What a pain and unecessary frustration, do they want to get rid of tool presets, but what is important to them is that default tools are for croping and some selecting that I do not need and those cannot be removed.

Tool Preset is different from Brush Preset.

You saved a Brush preset but you are searching about it in the tool preset. Search about brush you saved in the Brush panel or right click when you have the Brush tool selected.

You can also get you saved brushes from Window>Brush Presets.

Tool Presets saving the tool option from your option bar to get it anytime not saving the brush you saved as brush preset from the Brush Panel.

You are right i clicked on the wrong preset menu, but the result is still the same..the tool preset menu can be used with any tool including brushes as i understand it.
