Can't Turn Off Animated Zoom in Photoshop CC 2019

I have gone to preferences/tools and unchecked it...but it still is on. I much prefer ctrl-spacebar method of zooming into a desired space.

Thanks in advance

    What do you mean by its still ON.  Spacebar temporary Activate the Hand tool adding the Ctrl key temporary activates the Zoom tool.  There are many way you can zoom in Photoshop,  Short cuts can both zoom and change image windows size.  The mouse wheel can also be set to zoom but it does not also see to resize the image winnows.  Two finger touch can also zoom and resize image windows.  Some of the methods may look like an animated zoom but may actually be series  zoom steps that looks like zoom is being animated. Like when the Zoom tool is active and you drag  the Image it looks like zoom is being animated. Rather than a series if zoom steps that it is.

    I want to be able to drag the mouse with the button down (creating a dotted line retangular area)...when I let go of the mouse button, the image zooms to that area. I used to be able to do this by dragging with the CTRL and spacebar depressed.

    Has that feature been eliminated from Photoshop?
