When I go to edit a photo with the Magic Wand tool or the Quick Selection Tool. I click on the spot

in the image I want to select and the photo disappears. I have to hit deselect to get my photo to come

back.  I never had this problem before what do I need to do?

    The OS is windows 7 64 bit.

    Photoshop CS6 version 13.0.1 service pack 6.1.

    I have been using this for years and it just started doing it. 

    I tried to reset my tools in case I hit something by accident it

    didn't help.   It happens when I use the Magic Wand and

    the Quick Selection Tool.  I have not updated anything I tried

    to see if there was an update to fix this and it said there were

    no updates.

    Hi Mark

    Yes, it is Photoshop CS6  sorry I didn't realize I put it in the wrong section.

    Ok, I’ve moved this thread. Please tell us more about your system. Which OS and version? Did this just start happening? Have you updated anything recently?

    Can you confirm what version of Photoshop Fix you are running, and on what mobile device and OS?

    Actually, looking more closely at your problem, it sounds like you’re not talking about Photoshop Fix at all. Is the a problem with Photoshop CC? Again, what version and what OS/version?

    If this is Photoshop, we can move this over to the Photo forum.
