You will likely recognize both the keyboard shortcut and the position within the Edit Menu, as this is fairly standard across most major software programs. Especially when you are using tools like the Clone Stamp or Healing Brush tools, being able to quickly Control/Command + Z to undo will save a lot of time. Going to the Edit Menu to undo will slow down your workflow considerably.

It’s quick, easy, and something you will find yourself using repeatedly. If you only ever learn one keyboard shortcut in Photoshop, it should be this one.

Selecting Undo from the Edit Menu or better yet use the shortcut Control + Z (Windows) or Command + Z (Mac) Undo is the very first option in the Edit Menu and you can make this even easier and more efficient by using the keyboard shortcut Command-Z (Mac) or Control-Z (Windows).

The simplest and most obvious way to undo changes you have made to a document in Photoshop is by selecting Undo from the Edit Menu.
