Save / Copy Path in 22.4.1

I often save a path by double-clicking on the path layer in the Paths panel. This invokes Save Path dialogue box. Since 22.4.1 this action stopped producing a duplicated new path layer. Has anyone else encountered this issue? OS is Mojave 10.14.6. Thanks.

This has been fixed finally with PS 22.4.3. Now I can save a Shape Path as in PS 22.4.0 and earlier.

Can you describe this workflow? Usually, a work path is converted into a saved path when double-clicked. If you wanted to duplicate a path, you could Opt (Alt on Windows) + drag the layer in the Paths panel to duplicate.

...or double-click on the layer (which is quicker for me). None of these works since 22.4.1 update 🤔 🤔

 

[Edit] Sorry War Unicorn, I'm not making sense here - it's Shape Path I am referring to.

Wait, are you saying the Opt + drag option doesn't work either?

Hi. I have the same Ps version and that's working fine. Have you tried resetting the preferences? Reset Photoshop preferences

Thanks Marlon. Trashing the preference didn't solve this unfortunately. Also I have the same issue on two machines (MBP and MacPro). Are you on Windows?
