Photoshop 2026: Subject Selection and Background Removal Not Working

I'm having issues with Photoshop. When I use Select Subject or Remove Background, it doesn’t work — it says it couldn’t find any subject. It doesn’t matter if the image is HD; it still doesn’t work. Does anyone have a solution? This started happening with the 2026 version; in the 2025 version, it worked fine. I installed and reinstalled Photoshop, but the problem continues.

 

Estoy experimentando inconvenientes con Photoshop. Al utilizar las funciones Seleccionar sujeto o Eliminar fondo, el programa no realiza la acción y muestra un mensaje indicando que no se encontró ningún sujeto, incluso cuando se trata de imágenes en alta definición.

¿Alguien conoce alguna solución? Este problema comenzó a presentarse en la versión 2026; en la versión 2025 funcionaba correctamente. Ya he instalado y reinstalado el programa, pero la situación persiste.

@BrTijerino both are working fine on my system with Photoshop version 27.0, have you tried manually resetting your Photoshop preferences

Remember to back up your settings before doing the preference reset

Thanks, the issue was that I was performing the action from the device when it actually needed to be done in the cloud. I'm attaching screenshots in case someone else runs into the same problem.
