So I'm using the free transform tool to create some perspective because I need it to match the green rectangle height. I've done this in the past and it used to work fine but now I've aligned the bottom point and the bouding box stays a rectangle meaning if I move the top point it will move the bottom one again and so on. I need to grab each of them separately to a specific point keeping it available for adjustment. I've recently restarted AI so I don't know which option was changed. Hope I've explained myself clear.

Here's another image of what I'm talking about. I got this from a Youtube tutorial in which the person uses the free distort and the bounding box follows the shape making each point editable independently from each other:

What version of Illustrator are you using?

24.1.3 but it is the same version I had when I did it correctly.

And you're definitely using the free transform tool? I can't get it to behave incorrectly.

Sorry, it is the "free distort" tool. This guy explains my exact my problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc5noORtWe4 there's also a comment leading to this page: https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-feature-requests/suggestions/20525761-fr... stating this was solved on version 24.1.1 but I still face that issue.
I had updated to 25.0.1 but had to roll back as I had this issue there: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/messed-up-values-on-size-and-corners-numbers-don-t-match-...

I am aware of how the tool worked previously, but I can see no way of getting it behave that way since version 24.1.1
You say you rolled back a version -- are you sure you have 24.1.3 installed and not 24.0?
