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.

Problem or error

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.
