Hi, so... I have a problem with photoshop as shown in the video below, I double click on the layer but I can't rename it because an unknown error prevents me from doing this. If anyone knows what is causing this problem...

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

yes, all this is working, the problem is only trying to rename the layers

 

I meant: Can you rename the layer when you right-click the layer or use the Layer panel menu?

I noticed that this problem only happens when there is some content on the layer, as I can easily rename the layer without any content

That is a bit odd. Can you try right-clicking or using the Layers panel menu to see if either works?

Have you tried restarting Photoshop?

 

Is it happening with other layers/files?

 

You could try resetting the Photoshop Preferences. They can be found in the Photoshop menu on a Mac and the Edit menu on Windows. Within the General tab is the button Reset Preferences On Quit.
