I've had this happen to me before, although I don't remember what I did for it go away, I think I went to the paths panel and deleted path layers until it disappeared but I'm not too sure. I really just wanted to say that I could feel and see your frustration through your mouse and the clicking.. and I understand it, that's all. Lol

Hi @mikufan2, welcome to the community!
Could you share a few more details about the issue you're seeing? It would be super helpful to know which version of Photoshop you're using. Also, when you get a chance, please check that your graphics card drivers are fully up to date.
If possible, could you also share your System Info? You can find it in Photoshop under Help > System Info. Just copy it into a text file and attach it to your reply, or share it via Google Drive, WeTransfer, or any file-sharing service you prefer.
Thanks so much!
