UPDATE:
I saw a suggestion on another page to disable all plug ins and activate them one at a time while checking Classic Editor each time you activate one. My problem is being caused by Yoast SEO plug in. I had version 9.2.1 installed, updated to 9.3 and both prevent my Classic Editor from working.
Would love for them to fix this but for now I’ll just have to live without it.
Thanks for the suggestions. I may still look for a plug in to disable Gutenberg and see if that helps.

I just did the suggestion above about disabling all plug ins and activate them one at a time. The problems I’m having with Classic Editor are coming from Yoast SEO. I had version 9.2.1 installed. I updated to 9.3 and my Classic Editor still does not work. When I disable the Yoast SEO my Classic Editor works.
Hope you get this and can help.
Thanks.

Maxpt…I have the classic editor selected as default. Here’s what I run into when trying to add a new post.
When the screen opens up if it is on the “Text” mode I can add text but have no tool bars for changing text from paragraph to Heading 2, 3, or 4. I also can’t format the text such as making it bold, using italics, or color of font.
When I click to the “Visual” mode I can’t add text to the box.
If I try to edit an article already posted the text will not show up in the “Visual” mode.
Do I need to add a plug in to disable Gutenberg? Any help would be appreciated. I’m considering looking for a replacement for WordPress. I hate to do that since I’ve been comfortable with them for several years now. But I need simplicity. Thanks.

The plug in does not work for me either when trying to use the visual editor.

I seem to have the same problem. The classic editor will not allow me to use the visual editing view. I do not like the Text View or the block view. For now you have me in a position where I can’t post to my blog. Need some help here.
Thanks.
