I have the same issue. I cant use the Generative Fill, I also lost the grey task bar for it and can't figure out how to get it back.

Downloaded beta for the first time. 24.6 version. No updates pending.

Generative fill is in photoshop beta but greyed out.

"Generative Fill is currently not available" - the feature is greyed out in the context bar and the Edit menu.

What could be the problem?

Well, I have version 24.6.0 20230520.m.2181 4e0245f but it won't solve anything.

I am also seeing the Generative Fill is greyed out and nothing happens when I click.  If I hover I see the error "Generative Fill is currently not available"   The image is RGB-8 and Im using Windows 10.  

 

Adobe Photoshop Version: 24.6.0 20230520.m.2181 4e0245f x64

What about the rest of us that have the correct version based on the first line data in the System Info?

 

 

As I said before I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Beta version multiple times. I was able to use the Photoshop Beta version for several weeks when the Remove tool was introduced. But now the Gernerative Fill tool is greyed out and there is no hint when hovering over the space. Any ideas on what else to try? Or what the conflict might be?

The generative fill button is greyed out no matter what i do. If i select a part of an image, it is greyed out, etc. Am i doing something wrong or are there other steps needed to enable the generative fill?
