    Hey, @NeilB76. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll help you figure this out. I checked the account you used for the community and found an active subscription. 

     

    Has this started to happen recently? Does this happen with specific images or subjects?

     

    If you sync any images to Lightroom Web & Mobile, check if Generative Remove works on Lightroom Web (https://adobe.ly/3YKTDF1) in a browser.  

     

    Let me know how it goes. Thanks!
