Hi.  I just installed the newest version of Photoshop on my new Windows 11 computer.  When I check the box in Preferences to start photoshop with the legacy view it doesn't take effect.  I have tried restarting photoshop and restarting the computer to no avail.   Suggestions?

Hi @Sordfish61 there are two preferences - "Legacy View" refers to when you create a new document, not the home screen. The "Auto Show the Home Screen" refers to the initial startup interface.

You shouldnt have to restart Photoshop to see the New document Legacy View change.
