moving layer creating duplicate error

[michaelm14397294]

Hello,

I've updated to 2020, I'm having trouble when I am moving layers.

Each time I move my layer/object, another duplicate is left in the space it has moved from. This isnt actually a layer just a frozen image. It's just stuck there.

I'm having difficulty explaining, and therefore searching for anything to resolve this problem. So the screengrabs below hopefully outline the issue. The leftover image after the move wont disappear.

Thanks

Have you gone in under PS preferences and Clicked "Off" the Legacy Composite check-box? I was having the same issue and this solved it instantly

I'd try this but on mine, the Legacy Composite has been removed. But I also try to save the file again and close all other photoshop windows and the app too. Then I open back ps and open the file and the problem has fix. Thank you btw.

Hi, please try to update to 21.2.1, as one of the listed bug fixes is for this very problem, and please report if it worked: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/fixed-issues.html#photoshop-desktop-fixed-issues

I was having this problem too. Everytime I moved an element, it would leave a duplicate of the element behind. I just updated Photoshop and this has solved the problem. Out of curiosity, I checked preferences and saw under "Performance" that the "Legacy Compositing" button is, infact, still checked. I'll try unchecking it if I get any further problems but for now, I'll leave it checked since everything seems to be working properly again.
