### Easy Step-by-Step Method

**Step 1: Open the image in Windows 11 Photos app**

- Right-click your image \> Open with \> _Photos_.

**Step 2: Enter Edit Mode**

- In the top toolbar, click **Edit Image**.

**Step 3: Use the Eraser Tool**

- In the right panel, select **Eraser**.
- Use your mouse to brush over the part you want to remove. The tool will automatically blend the background.

**Step 4: Fine-Tune the Edit (Optional)**

- Zoom in for detailed edits.
- Adjust brush size to precisely target smaller objects or edges.

**Step 5: Save the Image**

- Click **Save a Copy** to preserve the original image.

### Quick Tips (Optional)

- Zoom in and reduce brush size for better control when erasing small UI parts.
- Try using the _background remover_ for larger areas or simple backgrounds.
- If using a game screenshot, it’s better than photo mode for hiding HUDs post-capture.

### Important Notes

- This feature is available only in the **Windows 11 Photos App (Beta or updated version)**.
- It may not perfectly erase complex or detailed elements on the first try—experiment with brushing again.
- This is a **manual tool** , not a one-click object removal AI—accuracy improves with careful editing.
