How do I remove the background in Photoshop shortcuts?

The fastest way to remove a background in Photoshop using shortcuts involves using the "Remove Background" Quick Action. Here's how:

1. Open your image: Launch Photoshop and open the image you want to edit.
2. Duplicate the layer: In the Layers panel (usually on the right), press Ctrl+J (Windows) or Command+J (macOS) to create a duplicate of your background layer. This is crucial in case you need to revert to the original.
3. Access the Properties Panel: If the Properties panel isn't already visible, go to Window > Properties. It's often located above the Layers panel.
4. Remove Background: In the Properties panel, under the "Quick Actions" section, click the "Remove Background" button. Photoshop will automatically detect the subject and remove the background.

Photoshop uses AI to intelligently select the subject. After using the Quick Action, you can further refine the selection with masking and other editing tools if necessary.
