Proseries basic is calculating a credit for a 23 yr old dependent college student.  The child tax credit is not checked and this is the only dependent.  The dependent is listed in the first dependent box.  There were 3 sons at one point but two have aged out and are no longer dependents.

Maybe an obvious question but did you verify that PS has the correct DoB for this student on the parents' return?

Delete the entire "line" for the dependent by right-clicking, then select delete line.

Do it again for the top blank space.

Re-enter the dependent.

Fix it manually if you need to, I had a client with 2 dependants over 17 as soon as I removed one of them the recovery rebate calculate credit for the second one (19 years), so I had to adjust it manually by multiplying $500 * # of dependant remaining.
