As you can see, no matter what color plugs in the hole, it keeps doing this.
MS Paint 24H2 will just color a entire fill line to the left and ignore any colors in the way. I don't know how this is happening, it worked fine a couple days ago.

For some reason, on my MSPaint program somehow works fine enough, But when I use the fill tool, it just colors everything to the left even with a different colored pixel in the way, I don't get how this is possible, it happens when it's a single pixel tall and infinitely fills a line left of it.

I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.
Apologies for any inconvenience you are experiencing. I am happy to help you today.
I just use the classic paint program as working with Layers can be very difficult which is why the filling issues can happen. You may want to use that using this workaround:
