No sure it its a 'bug' or a 'by design' new feature but I find in annoying.
When I open an image containing multiple layers in PS, the layers are not displayed in the layers panel, until you click the layers panel.

Any info/work around other by clicking on the layers panel each time?

The first screen short is when the image is first opened. The second after clicking on the layers panel

There are issues with Photoshop version 23.0.1 on Windows 11, Adobe recommend not running Photoshop on Windows 11, more info

Personally I will not be updating to Windows 11 for the foreseeable future, there's just to many bugs with it and the interface is awful, it's like Windows 8 only worse, Windows 10 is supported until 2025 so no reason to upgrade, Photoshop along with all the other Adobe apps work fine on Windows 10 as with all the other apps I use.

You've obviously not used Windows 11. The interface has hardly changed, Its very stable and offers far better security now than any other OS. This gltich with the layers panel not updating automatically on loading a new image is the only issue I've found with any application, assuming its a windows 11 issue, the root cause is no doubt down to adobes sloppy implientation.
