Q: How to Delete Keywords From Photos in Lightroom?

A: It's not obvious, if you highlight the wrong keywords in the Keywording box and deleting them doesn't work. Why? Because Adobe decided not to provide it. The solution, instead, is to use the keyword list

1. Select all the photos that you want to remove the keywords.

2. Look in the Keyword List, and remove the check mark of the wrong keyword
