Creating Masks (not pre-selected masks like Sky, motiv, background) not working

When I want to create a mask (e.g. brush) in version 13.1 (win11), it flashes briefly, but the mask is not created. I have the same problem with all other masks (linear, radial, etc.)

Discribe in more detail what you do. When you select the brush, or the radial gradient, or any other non-AI mask, you only select the tool itself. No mask is created until you actually apply the brush/gradient on the image.

In advance. This is not the first time I have used this function.
No matter which mask (brush, linear, radial, etc.) I select. Directly or
as a cut mask, the respective editing window pops up briefly and
disappears again immediately. Of course, I can't use this to create the
mask finally.

Ok. Problem solved after reboot. Good old reboot. If you have no idea to solve a problem, don't forget to reboot.
