I'm trying to resize my image by 25%, but when I try it goes to 99,9%.

When I try resizing by pixels it won't do that at all.

I have Resample checked.

I have been working with Photoshop for 30 years and have never had any problem with this.

Fixed! The solution was rather simple. I uninstalled all my Adobe apps and reinstalled them and that solved the problem.

I think @Stephen Marsh has the right answer. If typing in 25% suddely gets changed to 99.9%, this has to be corrupt preferences. Inexplicable and weird behavior is precisely what corrupt preferences do.

Not an answer, however, you could try one of the following scripts as a workaround:

Perhaps you need to reset preferences (first backup custom actions, brushes, patterns and other presets).

This usually happens when percent resizing hits rounding issues or the image has unusual dimensions/units. Try:

Check Image Size settings: make sure Width/Height units are set to percent.
Uncheck ‘Constrain Proportions’ temporarily and try 25%.
Double-check the canvas size — if it’s very large or has non-standard resolution, small percent changes can round weirdly.
Alternatively, try resizing by pixels: calculate 25% of width/height manually and enter exact numbers.
