Text Box Auto Fills with Lorem ipsum text

[jmoses123]

How do I stop the text box from auto filling in photoshop?  It used to just be an empty box when I placed it on the image before the update.

Hi there,

As you're getting a placeholder text please go to Photoshop's Preferences > Type and deselect "Fill new type layers with Placeholder text" and let us know if it helps.

Regards,
Sahil

Why do updates cause "silly stuff" to happen, some normal functions to cease and otherwise cause annoyances?

This is exactly why I dread updates. Two cups of coffee later and my workspace is finally (somewhat) back to normal.

I hate updates too!  Give me photoshop from 10 years ago.. and never change or update or "improve" anything.  Fire all developers and leave it as it was.  I don't want anything to change.
