Photoshop: Selection deletes pixels below (windows)
This bug started happening in one of the latest versions, possibly in the last half a year. When selecting pixels in the same layer, moving them over existing pixels and then deselecting & undoing the operation, PS deletes the bottom pixels. This also happens when adding to selection. This behavior did not happen in previous versions of the program and defiantly feels weird.

I'm trying to replicate what you're reporting, but I'm not seeing anything wrong. Perhaps I'm not performing the same steps you are. Could you tell me each step you're doing AND how you're doing it, in case this is a workflow bug?
Thanks,
David

1. have a layer with pixels in it.
2. select in whatever method you wish part of the pixels in that layer.
3. move the pixels you selected only with the selection using marquee tool+ctrl or using the move tool (doesnt matter which) to an area where they overlap other pixels in the same layer. Stop moving them :)
4. Now deselect the selection you have, either by clicking outside of the selection or by clicking ctrl+d.
5. click undo, ctrl+z.
6. Move again the selction, using marquee tool+ctrl or using the move tool (doesnt matter which).
7. Result: pixels below the selected area are gone.

This did not happened in previous versions. I have just reinstalled PS 2017.1.6 and this bug isn't happening there
