Fixed: New Path layers break after naming, anchors do not connect in Photoshop 22.3 update

Have just updated from PS 22.2 to 22.3. I have found that when trying to edit existing paths (rather than creating a new one from scratch) there seems to be a bug. If I delete one or more anchor points and pick-up the path again it will not join to new anchor points or close the path. Have had to give up and go back to 22.2.

I wonder if anyone else has experienced the same problem?

Appears to work OK here in Windows 10 v20H2 with PS22.3

Correction to my previous post - if the path is saved or copied - re-editing is a mess. So yes it impacts Windows.

"work path" is fine, but if you name the path, you should not be able to draw the segments of the path.

Keeping a meaningless Work Path seems to allow me to create proper Paths as expected. 


On windows any path I target I can edit.

Possible workaround: Please try creating an unneeded Work Path, then working on proper Paths might work as intended.
