Digital Photo Professional 4 Latest Version - Adjust Specific Area "Undo" Not Working

SignifDigits — Sat, 18 Jul 2026 13:13:11 GMT

Is anyone else having this trouble? "Revert to Shot Settings" isn't working either. Version 4.21.30.0 on Windows 11 with all Windows updates up to date and operating off of local SSD.

It's annoying, and my workaround is to to a save on all files (easiest way to be sure is to navigate to a new folder "Yes to All" and then back) then go into the file to only specifically perform that function. Then, if I don't like the results I can just "No to All".

Just wondering if it is me or the software and others are experiencing the same issue. If the latter seems a call to Canon support to ensure it gets logged as a bug in the workflow is in order.

Same version on macOS.

Back arrow undo works for Specific Area adjustment.

Thanks John. Good to hear it works as I suspect macOS is at least 50% of the users. So either a Windows bug or just a my computer configuration issue.

I just checked mine Signif and it is the same, revert does nothing. I got back from a hiking trip to Taos late Friday night and then took some photos of Big Boy Saturday morning so it was a good opportunity to test.

I am using DPP 4.21.30.0 running under Windows 11 Pro for Workstations 25H2 on a HP Z8 G5 dual Xeon workstation with all software and drivers up to date.

There is an old saying about classic Detroit Diesel engines that if the oil stops leaking, then you have run out of oil. For DPP, if everything is working perfectly then recheck because you probably launched Photoshop by accident 🤣

I use DPP often and it does many things wonderfully but it has never had the same fit and finish as Canon's pro line of camera gear. Having now used it for over 2 decades, I suspect it will never receive the attention it needs.

I'm on Win 11 Pro upgraded from 10, whether that means anything I don't know, DPP 4 ver. 4.21.30.0 and both commands work for me. Tested on R5 and R5 II Raw files.

I went back and tested some of my DSLR shots and DPP works fine with them as well. I did switch the flip several times with all files tested trying to break it.

Not sure what to say 🙂

Seems it is working in Windows 11 Pro but not my Windows 11 Home (I should have been more specific in my OP), and I'm guessing Rodger may be on Home as well. Thanks for checking and helping narrow it down Newton.
