    Try a work around - use the regular lasso tool and hold alt/opt to turn it into the polygonal lasso...

    Hi

    When you say latest version I assume it's CC 2019, try going into Preferences > Performance > Advanced Settings and change the drawing mode to basic, then restart Photoshop

    If that doesn't help try enabling this option also in preferences and restarting PS
