When I try to draw a line on my desktop computer it creates an arrow. I can't seem to get out of it.

I have un-installed Photoshop twice, no helped.

Works fine on my laptop and tablet.

The settings are shown in your image. I unchecked Live Shapes and Start. No change.

Box settings look just like the one on my computer.

This all started on a new computer. All the existing lines are ok. It's the new ones with the problem.

I re-installed Photoshop ne the arrow is gone and I draw a rectangle.


So are you all sorted now?  No more problems?
