in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

 

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

Illustrator has a Symbols panel; Photoshop does not. Can you show a screenshot so we can see what you mean by "symbols" so we can better assist?

If your talking about the Symbol font, then that's a photoshop bug on the windows side.

Until it gets fixed you can use the Window>Glyphs panel to insert the right characters.
