Don’t just grab any random software off the internet. Go for something reliable! There are tools like Paint 3D, which comes with Windows 11, where you can clone or cut parts of the image. Just don’t expect miracles if the watermark is hardcore! If you're just remove watermark from photo, it might leave the area looking patchy or weird. You might wanna blend or buffer the surrounding area. Using the Clone Stamp Tool in something like G1MP or Photopea (a free online editor) can be a game changer here.
- Using Snip & Sketch: If it’s just a small watermark and not a huge area, you can snip over it with another part of the image using the Snip tool or the built-in screenshot feature on Windows (Windows + Shift + S). It’s not perfect, but it can work for minor issues.
- Paint 3D: Open your image, use the select tool, outline the watermark, and hit delete. Then, use the brush tools to blend it back together. It’s basic, but it works for non-complex backgrounds.
