I had the same issue. I didnt had Left to right paragraph direction button to select in Paragraph menu. This option was available only if Middle Eastern features is enabled under Language options in Type menu. But this Middle Eastern features was not available in my Type menu. To enable Middle Eastern features in PS you have to go to Edit menu, to choose Preferencies and then under the Type options to choose Text Engine Options and to switch from East Asian to Middle Eastern. Then click OK and restart PS. After that go to Type menu again, then to language options and then select Middle Eastern. This will eventually help to show up the Left to Right Paragraph direction button to choose in Paragraph menu. After shoosing Left to Right Paragraph direction, punctions goes back to the end of the line where it should be. Hope this helps.

Also, this is NOT the correct answer!!! For me the link just directs to a list of adobe applications. When going down the help pages rabbit hole this kind of thing is sub-optimal. Leads people to re-ask the same question!!

Is there anyway for users to flag this broken information or vote it down at least so people arriving here for the first time don't waste time on it?

Well, apparently was the correct answer at the time.

2017 is a while back now after all …

Appreciate that, but a support community with the 'correct answer' not being correct is kind of not helpful. Almost the opposite of what the support community is striving for! There must be a way of fixing / mitigating that as people are still asking this question in 2023 and clicking on the 'correct answer' in this thread is jut a total waste of time.

Perhaps you can edit the link to pull through the actual correct answer, or just delete the post as the solution is actually in the posts below and then they can be marked as correct answer? Getting to the correct info in the swiftest way is surely the goal here.

Also, does anyone know why it periodically switches back to the 'wrong' way? Been using Adobe for decades, this recent changing of my type preferences without me requesting it is infuriating. Maybe with AI Adobe will learn that in 30 years I've never set my type preferences to be that way, so it would just keep my settings/workspace the same between uses. Yeah, right...

The paragraph buttton did NOT solve this issue for me...
BUT, changing to Latin did. I will include a photo.
