Generative Fill Not Working in Ps release 26.3 - Windows Defender

Generate Fill was not working for me. I saw a community post that said disabling Windows Defender Firewall would fix this. I did this, and it fixed the Generative Fill. I wasn't having this problem before. A Windows update might cause this. My last one was on 1/30/2025, KB5050081 (OS Build 19045.5440). How do I get Generative Fill to work with Windows Defender Firewall enabled?

 

Here are my system specs:

 

OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home
Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700K CPU @ 3.80GHz, 3792 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)

Hi @bobbyizq

I'm really glad to hear you found a workaround! For the tool to be functional with Windows Defender active, you will have to whitelist the Adobe domains. Have you tried whitelisting all the Adobe Network Endpoints listed here?

If your Adobe account is managed by an IT team, you'll need to contact them to whitelist these for you.

Hope this helps!

Thanks a bunch, Alek
