I've been using photoshop for over an hour and ctrl+z was working - until it wasn't. It stopped working and the undo option in the edit menu is greyed out and not selectable. I have to use history to undo. How do I get them back?! I use ctrl+z a LOT.

Correct answer Kevin Stohlmeyer

Have you saved and restarted Photoshop?

If that didnt resolve, go to your preferences and click the Reset Preferences upon Restart button in the General Section.

Restart your PS and see if that does the trick.

I've already closed photoshop and reopened it - it didn't help
