I've tried to make a clean reinstallation of Windows 10 and now it works, I don't know why. Maybe it could have been the recent windows' upgrades(?)

Is this drawn using a tablet? Could be something mapped to the Shift key.

Yes, it's drawn using a graphic tablet, but even if I use the mouse the result is the same

So the Grid is not turned on?

The behaviour is the same for mouse and tablet?

What scale is your screen shot? Was it zoomed 1:1 (Ctrl Alt 0) or (Cmd Opt 0)?

Is it only happening with the Brush tool?

What about other tools that use presets (Healing brush, Smudge tool etc.)?

I wonder if it is to do with Smoothing and pulled string set to catch up?  OK, I just tried to duplicate it and could not get your exact results, but try turning smoothing off to eliminate it.

Can you confirm your Photoshop version and operating system for a start off?

Thanks

I cannot reproduce your problem with Photoshop CC 2019 (20.0.1). Have you tried to reset tool/preferences?

Tool(s) can be reset using right-click on the tool icon in the Options bar.

Preferences can be reset from Preferences > General tab.

Could it be that Snap to grid is checked?
