ALT + Left Click Freeze the Photoshop

[MR OMAR35359965z8v1]

Hi!

I am using adobe photoshop in windows 11, and when I switch the input method to simplified chinese, the "alt" key shortcut will cause several issues. When I tried to use alt + left key to duplicate a layer, the photoshop freeze, and I cannot save the file or cancel the movement. However, it works well when I switch the input method to English.

This bug seems to be appeared recently.

Let me know what's the best way to solve this issue.

Thanks

By the way, the input method I am using is the default Microsoft Chinese Pinyin

I have to thank you!
I couldn't for the life of me figure out why Photoshop stopped working suddenly. Turns out you're right, I had Japanese IME and it was causing the issues when input was not on English.
