Problem: Photoshop won’t save feather radius setting (always resets to 0.1 px)

New Here ,
Nov 03, 2025 Nov 03, 2025

Hi everyone,

I’ve just downloaded the latest version of Photoshop, and I’ve run into a strange issue. Whenever I try to apply a feather to a selection, the “Feather Radius” is automatically set to 0.1 px with a blue outline around the input field.

I actually want to set it to 0.8 px (which shows a red outline in the input field), but every time I click OK, Photoshop resets it back to 0.1 px.

It doesn’t seem to matter what kind of selection tool I use — the setting just won’t stick.

Has anyone else experienced this issue, or knows how to fix it?
Is this a bug in the latest update, or is there maybe a new preference I need to change?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi @martin_3523, welcome to the community!
To help us get a better idea of what’s going on, could you share a few more details? Specifically, the exact version number of Photoshop you're using and your operating system.
As a first step, it might be helpful to try resetting your Photoshop preferences, just in case something got corrupted. Just a heads-up: this will reset things like brushes, workspaces, and other custom settings, so make sure to back those up first.
You can follow the steps here:
