rulers and guides

[Ulrich22127402h6e1]

I've been using Photoshop for more than 20 years now, and sure, a lot of cool featchers have been added over the years, and yes a lot of things have gotten a lot easier.... but, a lot of things feel irrationally cumbersome after one or the other update. For example: rulers and helplines, are currently, more or less unusable.

My question: how do I get back to my rulers as uncomplicated as possible?

Do you mean you can't get therulers to show even when you have ticked the option? (or used the shortcut CTRL+R)
It's working fine on my end (and it should on yours too)

There's probably something else going on...
Is that a recent issue?

I think since the last major update???
Yes, this is actually a standard key combination in my workflow.
For some time now, I have also been unable to use: "Ctrl+" to show or hide the guides.... and now the display of the rulers doesn't work either.... it's frustrating...
