Can't see the Harmonize option in my 26.10 Photoshop version

Hello everyone!

As the title says, I can't see or enable the Harmonize option in my latest 26.10 Photoshop version. Can't find the update to 26.11 either.

Weird thing is the fact that the Harmonize option is available to me via the Photoshop Web browser, but not on my native Macbook app.

Yes, I've downloaded it and tried enabling it in Neural filters, but it didn't do the trick. 

Any ideas what this could be?

Correct answer fvckmaelstrom

I don't know whats going on but your previous screenshot supplied showed the beta tab I pointed out. 


You are 100% correct @Kevin Stohlmeyer 

I accidentally took the 1st screenshot inside my browser (where I previously could not find the Beta menu item), which today apparently appeared, without me even noticing. Yeah, I should double-check it. 

The second screenshot is from my laptop's CC app, which is still lacking that menu item. 

But I now went back to the browser version of CC and installed the Photoshop Beta app. Thanks to your sharp eye.

Thank you so much!!!

Anyone reading this afterwards, just check your CC in the browser, the Beta tab should probably reappear for you too.

There is another thread were some users using certain Apple silicone were having this same issue. 
There is a suggested fix there that might help.

Thanks @Robert27409827tp88 I saw this while I was searching for the solution, before I decided to post a thread here. It worked for some people, but it doesn't work for me since I don't even have the configs folder. After the copy/paste folder path didn't work, I manually tried to find the OOBE folder, but it does not contain the configs folder for some reason. Nor any other Adobe folder for that matter...

@fvckmaelstrom why do you suddenly have two different screenshots/setups?

The first one you supplied shows the beta tab and you have Illustrator Beta installed. 

 

The second is a completely different setup. 

Try logging out and back into your Creative Cloud app.

Hey, @fvckmaelstrom. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll help you figure this out. 

 

If you're looking for Harmonize in the Contextual Task bar, powered by Generative AI, you'll need to have suitable layers open in Photoshop. Meaning, you'll need to bring in another image over the base/background layer > If the layer has a background, use Remove Background > Harmonize.

Note that the help page Sameer linked to is for Photoshop Beta, not the released version. Please download the Beta from your CC app if you wish to try this feature before it is ready for the released version.

 

"Learn how to blend objects into any background with Harmonize. Photoshop (beta) automatically adjusts the lighting, colors, shadows, and details for realistic results."

@jane-e 

Isn't the 26.10 version supposed to support Harmonize?

I don't see any other version available in my CC (beta or non-beta)
