Transform_Maintain Aspect Ratio problem_Photoshop 22.2.0 update

Hi all, I've noticed that since the PS 22.2 update my Transform tool has reverted back to the legacy behaviour i.e I need to hold shift whilst transforming in order to maintain the aspect ratio. I've checked in preferences and 'Use Legacy Free Transform' is unchecked. Any ideas out there? Many thanks

Did you uncheck the lock-icon?

Doh!! Thank you very much. I didn't uncheck purposefully, but it was unchecked. Thank you

I can’t rule out that the update may have caused it, but whenever a Tool behaves differently than expected the Options Bar is a good place to start looking for a reason.
