I was trying to move a selection and kept just getting a squirrely line when I noticed the file name had layer in it. I clicked on layer at the top and deleted it but apparently there were 2 layers so I had to do it again. Now my file name is OK and moving a selection works. However I wanted to use the brush tool which is white to brush over parts of the file, but it doesn't work.

It works fine on other files.

Actually I saved the file and when reopened it, the problem went away.

Can you please add a full screen screenshot including the options bar and layers panel when you are trying to use the brush.

assuming ps because of past posts.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
