I want to downsize all my vertical images which are way bigger than the size I want(1000px by 1000px).

How I can create actions which automate this process to bulk square all these images, content aware fill the right/left bars that creates when images squared.

Please suggest actions that retains maximum quality and colors do not get changed.

Correct answer Stephen Marsh

Here is another version which creates much better results, using Generative Fill from Photoshop 2024 (not compatible with earlier versions):

One way is similar to the following:

You can download the action here, which presumes a flattened Background:

You may wish to add a flatten step at the end.

This is before image

This is after image

Have you posted in the wrong topic?

You have another topic about removing borders/frames.

This is the first time that you have indicated that these images may have a border/frame in this topic. The expectation was that the image would have no frames or borders as the starting point.

You have not provided a 1000px sample.

You have not provided a sample with the black borders.

It is very hard to help you when you are not providing good information.
