Problem using text tool in Elements 24

When trying to use the text tool in Elements 24, why does a text in a foreign language show up every time?  I have to delete it every time before I can add my text.

    That's just placeholder text called Lorem Ipsum

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorem_ipsum

     

     

    You can turn it off by going to Edit>Preferences>Type and unchecking Fill new type layers with placeholder text

    on a Mac it's Adobe Photoshop Elements 2024 Editor>Settings (Preferences)>Type

       That was a good read on Lorem Ipsum.

      Somewhat related:   I once watched a movie on the Helvetica Font.
