Go to menu Window > Shapes then click at the top right of the panel that opens and in the drop down menu choose "Legacy Shapes and More"

I'm wondering this myself. It is crazy to have a Tree and Boats standard in the shapes menu, but my arrows are gone? What the heck? How do I get them back?

Dave thanks for the response. You're mistaken if you think Adobe 'just'
added more shapes. A GUI that changes independent of the users action is
not a good thing.

What's the point of customizable workspaces if they reset every time you
update software? What's the point of having a customizable shape palette if
the arrows and shapes you've gotten used to for so many years are, without
warning, are hidden from you? Whatever advantage customizable GUI offers is
contradicted by the wasted time on forums trying to find where tools and
features have been hidden.

We may have to disagree about this. If you can't see from my perspective,
then we don't have much to talk about.

Hi, the Ps team created panels that lets you organize things faster, with folders, in some cases recent items, and decided to refresh the contents with new shapes. In order to keep performance at a good level , they decided to groups the older items in a legacy folder that you can get back. 
They maybe overlooked to share more info about where one can find the legacy items, and I totally agree that they forgot to add the legacy entries in the option bar local menus, where many users go to search for them, by muscle memory.

Hi

If you still have Photoshop CC 2019 installed you can import them from here

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Presets\Custom Shapes

I just imported the All.csh

No it was uninstalled by adobe tech support, when they noticed, I had older version of it still installed, I think i am goint to revert back to the 2019 versions, My graphics card isn't supported by the 2020 products any way.
