Photoshop elements 9 editing colour problem

[anthonyc29430958]

I've just encountered an unusual problem. When dragging photos from the project bin to the workplace and placing them on a blank sheet, my lovely colour pictures appear in black and white. I can only think I must have inadvertantly pressed some command somewhere, but what? and where? Please help me to get back to normal. By way of background I'm using Windows 10 on a Dell laptop, and have been performing this operation quite successfully for several years up to now!

Hi
Since your question is about Photoshop Elements, I have moved your post there from the "Photoshop" forum for you.

When you do File>New>Blank File verify the Color Mode is set to RGB Color
