I tried to use generative fill to remove a person from a group photo. It ends up just adding a stranger to the photo and not completly removing them.

I told generative fill to "remove person" and it would just repopulate the photo with options of other strangers in place.

That makes sense, you didn't tell it not to replace the person with another person. :]

 

Not that I think that would help, however, the prompt content is important. You could try with no prompt.

 

Content Aware Fill and Remove Tool would be my first choice to remove content.

@BrandonBB – You’re welcome. I'm unsure if this is a bug, you didn't mention the prompt used in the contextual task bar (or was it blank?).
