Correct answer Rick Gerard

You are looking at the Footage Panel. You need to be in the Composition panel to make Content aware fill work. 

 

What tutorials have you been watching? Most of the ones I have seen on CAF are lacking in explanations. 

 

Here's the manual: https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/using/content-aware-fill.html

 

This contains a decent 5-minute tutorial: https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/how-to/remove-unwanted-element.html

 

Both were found by using the Search Help field in the top right corner of After Effects.
