Inner shadow stroke parameter not working properly

Here's my issue: I'm trying to add an inner shadow on my layer, but when I try to change the stroke, even by just 1%, it fills out the entire layer with the shadow color. The preview works fine, but in the layer, it's doing this weird thing.
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I'm on PS 21.0.1

Salut!
I am wondering why the layer opacity and fill are disabled. Is the layer opaque? Are you looking at 100% zoom?
'did you try to reset Photoshop's preferences manually by dragging the preferences folder to the desktop. This way you can copy them back if it does not work: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually

It works for me (with the screenshot from OP edited)

and I can also reproduce the behaviour with incorrect inner glow settings

IMO there is actually no need to reset the preferences. Maybe we can have a look at the file ourselves soon. Maybe the OP will also show us which tutorial he is working to ...

Try to disable the "Inner Glow" (Lueur interne)

Nope, that's not changing the behavior of the inner shadow stroke unfortunately

@Tom26482893qfvv can you post your Photoshop system info, in Photoshop go to Help > System Info, hit the copy button and paste the entire thing into this thread
