P: Pen Tool Not Working as it should

I have just updated Photoshop to v22.3 (10 March 2021). When I try to use the Pen Tool it puts the nodes in but doesn't create a linking line. I have closed everything and re-started my PC but the error still there. I've been trying to find a way to report this to Adobe but this is the only feedback area I can find. I have been using Photoshop for over 20 years and using the Pen Tool all that time. I need to complete a job but I'm now stuck as I need this tool.

 

Can I uninstall this update?

 

Anyone else having this problem?

 

Do Adobe monitor this feed?

Oui, toujours le même problème après les 2 mises à jours de Adobe disponibles aujourd'hui.

Personnellement je mémorise mon tracé seulement quand il est terminé.

Le problème ne se produit pas sur un tracé de travail.

OMFG. New patch released today. 

Paths are still BROKEN.

Adobe, this is a tool used by countless professionals across multiple industries and we depend on the Paths working as expected. For this to be broken for more than a week is unacceptable. To be broken for what will eventually be months, is unimaginable.

Have you forgotten who your market is?

Thanks for taking one for the team K8T.

I appreciate the time you all put into figuring out the work-around but I'm still going to hold on 22.2 until they get it right.

I haven’t updated yet, so thanks for the heads-up. 

Yeah, it is disappointing that the bug was not fixed with the very next dot-release after being introduced.
