Is there a workaround for Photoshop CS6 histogram?

I noticed this and I wonder if there is one feasible solution over another that saving my work, close the application and reopen the app.

Here are the steps:

  1. Open a file (any file type compatible)
  2. Open the histogram window
  3. Open the layer window

If a single layer / background unlock

OR

Open the file with more than one layer (image, mask or adjustment)

In the layer window now deselect the background layer, or all the layers by clicking on the window under the layers (JUST under the window "Layer 0" in the layer)

The histogram goes to B & W histogram

The only way to return to the previous display of color is to close PS CS6 and reopen it. Then you're back to the complete histogram.

When you change several layers in files or compositing, it is really a problem and slows down the workflow.

Is there another workflow? I tried some workaround solutions, but none have worked other than reboot.

No idea what is happening? or did someone else running into this?

Just 'not by selecting' is not an option.

Looks like that has happened for several versions.

To return to the color without restart photoshop cs6, you can go to the expanded view and choose colors in the drop down list.
