I have read solutions (or rather the solution) provided by Adobe on this forum and had already researched it prior, but nothing seems to work. The Object Selection tool is still MIA. Thoughts please?

Problem or error

The Object Selection tool is new with PS 2020. Confirm you are running that version, then go to Edit > Toolbar for the screenshop Chuck is asking for.

Done. I started using PS in 1995 with PS 3.0 so been in this rodeo for a while. Twenty five years and how time flies. Amazing though how there is the odd thing that will still stump you.

What version of Photoshop do you have? Can you post a screen shot of your customize tool panel UI, as I have below?

Thank you for responding. My version is: PS 20.0.6 And I do use Topaz Labs Remask for difficult masking/selection jobs, but sometimes you just need a quick selection without all the masking involved, so this looked interesting.

“My version is 20.0.6”

That’s PS CC 2019, which does not have the Object Select tool. There are updates to bring 2019 up to 20.0.8, btw. The version that has it is PS 2020, aka 21.0.2, so you’ll need to get the version that was released in November to get this tool.
