No more photos spoiled by unwanted elements! Microsoft has equipped the Windows Photos application with a revolutionary tool: the Magic Eraser. Powered by artificial intelligence, this feature makes it easy to remove objects and replace them with realistically generated content.
A leap forward from “Spot Fix”
The old “ Spot Fix ” feature allowed you to retouch photos by erasing imperfections and other defects. But the Magic Eraser offers a much more successful result, even on large areas. Goodbye to tourists in the background or unsightly poles that spoil your landscapes!
Simple and precise operation
To use the Magic Eraser, nothing could be simpler:
- Edit Image tab and select the “ Clear ” option.
- Hover over the objects or areas you want to remove with the brush.
- Adjust the brush size for optimal precision.
Full control and advanced features
Automatic application can be disabled for more precise control. You can create and delete masks manually to target specific areas or erase several objects simultaneously.

Magic Eraser is currently rolling out to Windows Insiders on all channels, including Windows 10. To take advantage of it, simply update the Windows Photos app to version 2024.11020.21001.0 or higher.
Good news for Windows 11 Arm64 device users: all of the AI-powered editing features in the Photos app are now available, including Magic Eraser. Additionally, Windows 10 users can also take advantage of these revolutionary tools.
