Can't select edge loops in v2.82?

[twunny phaiv]

Ever since I updated to 2.82 a few days ago, I'm unable to select edge loops. I made sure it imported my previous settings and I even double-checked that it's bound to the default key mapping (alt+left click) but absolutely nothing happens when I try to select an edge loop.
Any ideas?

Works for me with default config in v2.82. Did you test this on a new cube-mesh with a freshly made loop cut? I think blender doesn't see a complete loop unless every vert in the expected loop connects to exactly 4 other vertices (no more and no less).

Still works for me too.

Was going to say this too. Depending on your topology what technically counts as an edge loop might not be what you were expecting. It should be selecting 1 edge at least though.

Nope, doesn't work. It doesn't even select a single vertex at a time.

Do you have right click select on?

Nope, left click like I've had since 2.80.

Try resetting Blender to factory settings maybe, if you haven't. Also, maybe your alt key on the keyboard is broken and not getting read?

Beyond that I have no more ideas or guesses.

I reset it to factory settings and that fixed it. No clue what happened beforehand that lead to it being disabled, though. Thanks!
