Magic wand doesn't work in the latest version

i click on a color, it flashes, but it doesn’t select it when i set it to add. and when i select with replace, it just deletes the previous selection.
please this is really frustrating what do i do?

can i see the canvas you are working in and the settings of the magic wand?

As a first step, check the buttons on the left in the context bar. There are Replace, Addition, Subtraction and Intersection selection modes. Replace as default.

that is the first thing i checked. i’ve been using this software for at least 4 years now i know how it works. and i previously mentioned the out comes of using add and replace. i’m 99% sure this is a new bug that appeared in the last beta version.
