Undo/redo and history in Adobe Photoshop

Beginning with the October 2018 release of Photoshop CC (20.0), you can undo multiple steps in your Photoshop document using Control + Z (Win) / Command + Z (Mac). This new multiple undo mode is enabled by default.

To perform undo or redo operation, do the following:

  • Undo: Moves one step back in the undo chain. Choose

    Edit > Undo

    or use the keyboard shortcut Control + Z (Win) / Command + Z (Mac).

  • Redo: Moves one step forward. Choose

    Edit > Redo

    or use the keyboard shortcut Shift + Control + Z (Win) / Shift + Command + Z (Mac).

The Edit menu also displays the name of the step that will be undone next to the Undo and Redo commands. For example, Edit > Undo Edit Type.
