Ctrl+T not Working

I have been having a problem with using the Ctrl+T free transform short-cut not functioning for several months now.

 

It used to work without problem, when I wanted to edit a layer. This would work fine for text layers, photos, groups of layers, etc.

 

Reproduction method:

1/ Select the required layer

2/Press Ctrl-T

 

A purple box used to be drawn around the layer and I could then move it, re-size it or whatever.

 

This has stopped working now. When I press Ctrl-T now nothing happens.

 

Note: I can use the menu item: Edit > Free Transform

and the purple box shows up.

 

The menu item reads:

(tick) Free Transform        Ctrl+T

 

So it is not a show-stopper for me, but a bit of a pain to have to use the menu each time.

 

I have looked around the internet but there don't seem to be any obvious solutions. I have tried rebooting of course, but this did not fix the problem.

 

Any help with what to do to fix this would be appreciated.

@John23028328jkyq the shortcut is working as expected for me with Photoshop version 25.12, have you checked the shortcuts panel to make sure Ctrl + T is still assigned to Free Transform

If that doesn't help, try manually resetting your Photoshop preferences

Remember to back up your settings before doing the preference reset
