14.1 release 17.7cr

It was working, I use it most days. 
There have been updates from adobe but I have no date info as I auto update.

Basic steps:
use a healing tool  (or any AI feature in PS) and after the usual AI timer a vauge message appears saying AI isnt working and it gives no reason. Here is the message:

 

The issue is that I have learned to rely on this and now it has failed. I very much hope Adobe can get this one sorted quickly please!

I have a great internet connection between 200MBps and 1.3Gbps (depending what room Im working from). Previously it worked on this connection and far weeaker ones in cafes so I dont suspect this to be the issue.

"Generative Remove Failed. Something went wrong. Please try again."

 

As a rule, LR's error messages are notoriously uninformative, but the the messages for Generative Remove are useless.  The translation of that error message in TranslatedStrings is:

"$$$/Clio/StatusCode/HTTP/UncategorizedHTTPError=Something went wrong.^nPlease try again."

So "UncategorizedHTTPError" indicates some network problem. Sometimes firewalls and anti-malware / anti-virus utilities incorrectly block some network requests from LR. Try these troubleshooting steps:

- Temporarily disable all the firewall / anti-malware on your computer. If that solves the problem, then add a specific exclusion for LR to the firewall's rules.

- Connect to another network, preferably one serviced by a different ISP. E.g. a Wifi connection of a neighbor, a coffee shop, work, or your phone's hotspot. Sometimes the routers in these networks block LR's requests, especially in authoritarian countries like China.

To help others, please let us know which of these work and which don't.

Thanks, I will try connecting to another network again although I have already tried in one cafe and it was the same.

I can't find a means to turn off the firewall. It seems to be macafee/defender combined. Its what came with the computer.  I checked through the allowed and blocked list and adobe was all over the allwoed list. Blocked list was empty.

As a first diagnostic step, disable Mcafee and Defender entirely just briefly enough to try Generative Remove. If that helps, then you'll know that they're responsible and it will be worthwhile to learn how to add an exception for LR in particular. (Exceptions are generally per application.)

'So you upgraded at some point to Windiws 24H2, was that well before this issue showed up?

Thanks, I dont even know what that is or when the update occured as windows updates are set to auto.
Id be prepared to investigate if you think it is a problem?

"but I have no date info as I auto update."

"windows updates are set to auto."

 

Many of us under no circumstance allow the OS or the various Apps to just willy-nilly auto update. We do not trust the software developers to not foul up. Not for OS, not for Programs, and not for firmware

 

Many of us wait several days if not a couple of weeks, for any issues to appear for other users, and/or in discussions on blog and info sites.  This very Adobe Lightroom Classic community for example, where you can see that around LrC v13 the Sync to Cloud got very fouled up.

 

That Windows upgrade to 24H2, some very specific computers have had issues, so bad that Windows pulled the upgrade back for computers with specific hardware attached.

 

some examples:

 

 

Not that the Windows update is your issue. I asked to see if you had updated just before your issues showed up as to see what if????

 

I have in fact an existing discussion about 24H2, to see if anyone has an ussue. So far, no:

 

 

 

You may want to consider not trusting these programmers.

Update:
I tried rolling back LRc to the last version and it made no difference to this issue.
