Sorry @André36678699dyam I meant do you have this isue with Ps release version?
@defaultom1lh2o80nq2 in the screenshot you shared, the error lists a ...0045-1.jpg. Do you have this same issue if you open this file in Ps release version or JUST in the latest Ps Beta?

@CShubert, I'm having the same issue, but, only on my Intel iMac. On my M4 Max laptop, it works.
On my Intel iMac, I get an error when trying to use any option from the Select / Modify menu, after creating a selection. I've also purged my preferences and still get the error.
It works fine on the Photoshop 26.7 release, on both machines.
