Cannot Select Individual Layers in a Group Folder

Before the Photoshop 2025 update, I was able to select a layer within a group by simply using Alt/Option + Left Click when my Move Tool was set to Auto-Select and the dropdown was on "Group". This option no longer works, and my muscle memory is struggling here hahaha, since I've been using Command + Alt + Right Click to achieve the same function.

Any help with this? I'd love to have the simpler option working again.

PS: I thought I was going crazy, so I went to do some research and found forum posts confirming that the simple shortcut I’m referring to actually did exist.
