Every time i use the control button in photoshop (to undo for example) it functions as the move tool. The default key shortcuts are set and I have reinstalled many times. Does any one know whats going on?

I have an idea.

Remove the crack and purchase a legal version of the software, and POOF problem goes away..

the crtl key is SUPPOSED to invoke the move tool!

Hush, Dave!

The correct answer is RTFM, remove the crack, reset prefs and keep yer shirt on.

Hey, Alan, I’m sure those guys didn’t mean it like that. We’ve just gotten enough of the "My Control Key Doesn’t Work" from people using the crack that some of the folks around here are a little tired of it.
