Looks like your using photoshop elements 13.

 

A couple of things to try:

 

1. With the Type Tool selected click on the small downturned arrow as highlighted in the

     screenshot below and click Reset Tool.

 

 

2. If that doesn't work go to Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor>Preferences>General, click on

    Reset Preferences on next launch and restart the photoshop elements editor.

In pse 11 in Expert mode with the Type Tool selected. clicking on Tool Options at the bottom of the pse 11 window should show some the same options as above.

Tracking choices are limited before about version 14.

The key here is found under the Asian text options- choices are limited.
