command+option+shift+t does not work the way it should

Question

Hi, I am a newbie to photoshop and I was looking at a video tutorial that covers making a multicolored sunburst background. In this video, the person is using the command+option+shift+t shortcut to quickly replicate the rays and in the video when she uses it, this command creates new layers automatically. However, when I tried this shortcut it just creates copies of the rays with the correct transformation on the same layer. I was wondering how I could edit the command so that it creates a new layer automatically every time I use it on my mac?

Yes, you are right! I could not find the free transform under edit as I only have the following options which are all related to path. Where could I find free transform in this version of photoshop?

Try switching to the Move Tool again.

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible?  Did you transform the first copy before applying Transform Again (+ shift)?
