I apologize if this is the wrong section. I'm not sure what the "ecosystem" is. I didn't see a forum for regular photoshop.

Somehow my background grid got completely crooked, and unlike in Illustrator where there is a very simple rotation window to type in whatever rotation you want, I see nothing to straighten this out. I'm going bananas not seeing a simple fix for this. Surely it's not that difficult. I would very much appreciate your knowledge. thank you 😕😕

Looks like you've use the Rotate canvas tool:

If you look in the options for it, there is a Reset Veiw button.

OhMiGosh thank you!. I watched multiple youtube videos telling me I had to use a measuring tool to line it up, etc. and nothing worked. I new it had to be so simple. I just don't use Photoshop enough to know the shortcuts and tool bar. I predominately use Illustrator. Thank you Again! 🙂

You're in the right place. "Ecosystem" is the name Adobe came up with to include applications like PS for iPad, etc.

 

It looks like you accidentally used the Rotate View tool "R". Try pressing Escape.
