Cookie Cutter crop tool turns to regular mouse arrow when trying to drag unconstrained crop

On a Macbook using Photoshop Elements with Sequoia.

When I go to drag my cookie cutter tool the arrow changes from the usual crosshair to the arrow. This has been an issue ever since I started using Sequoia. Resetting the tool and/or Photoshop fixes for maybe the first time but it goes right back to it. I think this happens whenever I take the pointer out of the canvas but it never snaps back to the crosshair. I am trying to crop from corner to corner so this issue is common for me.
