Generative remove failure

[rhemm354]

In some instances when using the generative remove tool on Lightroom Classic, the tool goes through its processing then leaves a black mark where I had drawn. Even after regenerating, it remains black. I have redrawn the selection before to try to fix it but the new selection will remain black. On Lightroom Classic version 15.0.1.

Hi, thanks for reaching out! 

Please try updating Lightroom Classic to the latest version (15.1) and check if you still experience the same behavior. If you do, please share a screenshot of the entire interface so we can also view the tool's settings. Also, let us know the format of the files you're working on. 

Thanks,
Nikunj

Hi Nikunj,

I just updated to 15.1, and the issue persists. It has started to happen every time I try to make a new selection and I cannot use the remove feature reliably at this point.

I am working with Canon Raw .CR3 files imported from a Canon R6 Mark II.

This could be caused by outdated GPU drivers. Go to the website of your GPU manufacturer and check for updates. If you have a Nvidia GPU, then use the Studio drivers, not the Game Ready drivers.

@rhemm354, if updating your graphics drivers doesn't help, you may be tripping over this bug acknowledged by Adobe:
