The color picker for text is no longer available

Your issue is actually not the same as the OP’s and is best off in a separate thread.

@richardc10145512’s color picker has been missing and we are waiting to see a screenshot.

I also discovered, that it only works after you pick a random color in the color selector box. You can then go outside the box and hold down the cursor to get the dropper tool. Sounds like a glitch Photoshop needs to fix.

I was having the same issue HOWEVER I just discovered that when I take my cursor out of the Color Picker window and hold it down over the color I want, it turns into the picker tool and gives me the color I select. 

Present, correct and working here in v27.11.0 on Windows 11. The eyedropper appears as soon as the cursor moves outside the colour dialogue box.

Can you show a screenshot of your options bar for the Type tool so we can see why it’s missing?

Also, instead of “latest”, can you give us the exact version?
