Well as usual, after another update, there are problems. Had to fix my curser back like I had it and I see even more things to re-set.

But the worse thing is my Patterns. I have lots of patterns and when I try to open them the whole window is whited out! No way to load more or anything. Just a totally useles window with nothing clickable.

Please tell me what has happened. Yes, I will send a screenshot if you need it.

Correct answer c.pfaffenbichler

You seem to call the Pattern Overlay-section of the Layer Styles the »Pattern Window«.

That Panel would actually be shown/hidden via Window > Patterns.

Thank you, c.pfaffenbichler. I went to Windows>Patterns and I see where I am able to add my Patterns back where I had them. But why would them all disappear after the update? It's a pain to have to spend the evening adding all my Patterns back where I had them! Thank you again.

If all other presets migrated fine it is mysterious that the Patterns did not.

In any case it can be useful not to uninstall the previous version when upgrading, that way one can easily use Edit > Presets > … to export and import the Presets if they didn’t migrate properly.

It looks like a display issue to me.

What GPU are you using, and what driver?

It might be helpful if you could go Help > System Info > Copy

and paste the results to this thread.

Also tell us a bit about the computer hardware you are using — especially if it is a laptop.

We need more details. Are you opening patterns through File > Open? What file format are you using, and where are your patterns located? Which version of Photoshop are you using? Please post a screenshot of the entire window with the Layer panel expanded and visible.

I am adding patterns to layers as I go along. I gave up adding a pattern and just added a style. But Patterns won't work on any layer. Screenshot shows my layers with the styles on. No 2 shows pattern window whited out and un-usable. No 3 shows a normal window for adding strokes.

I use the current version of Photoshop and just updated when this happened. There is no access to pattterns.

You omitted to post a screenshot of the Patterns Panel.
