Activate Edit Tool

Hello, Suddenly all my Edit tools became in-Active, I cannot use the Free Transform and a lot of other options. All became Grey and not functional.

please advise how to activate them. Thanks

Could you please post a screenshot taken at View > 100% and with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible?

The Layers and Channels Panels are not visible.

Are you sure a Layer is selected for example?

[wissams40194061]

usually I right click on a Pic,then open with adobe and then Edit. now Edit is inactive.

I pressed on the layer and the same.

Either first Select All (cmd-A) or change the Layer from a Background Layer by double-clicking it.
