      Photoshop later versions running on Windows 7 will somehow disable or break the ESC key.

      This means for SketchUP users that they can not use the ESC key to escape out of editing a group or component.

      Three solutions:

      1> close Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, and it will work just fine again. (not a practical solution)

      2> Using Shift+ESC will work instead. Simple enough, but not as handy.

      3> The best solution πŸ€“ appears to be to run a tiny script provided here to fix the problem.

        I've been running this for a while now as well because of this problem. It causes all sort of problems for me in autocad!
