This method is effective for removing selected objects or areas quickly.

1. Make a Selection: First, use any selection tool (like the Lasso Tool, Marquee Tool, or Quick Selection Tool) to select the object or area you wish to remove from your image. Ensure your selection is reasonably precise around the object.
2. Access the Fill Menu: Go to the main menu bar at the top of the Photoshop window. Navigate to Edit and select Fill.
3. Choose Content-Aware: In the "Fill" pop-up window that appears, look for the Contents drop-down menu. Click on it to open the list of fill types.
4. Select Content-Aware: As specified, to remove an object, select Content-Aware from the Contents drop-down menu.
5. Confirm: Click the OK button in the Fill window.

Once you click OK, Photoshop will analyze the image, remove the selected object, and fill it in how it thinks is best. The area where the object was will be automatically reconstructed based on the surrounding image content, often resulting in a smooth, seamless removal.

This process leverages Photoshop's powerful algorithms to intelligently sample nearby areas and blend them into the space left by the removed content.
