Word or phrase for help that is really not helpful [duplicate]

Is there a word, phrase or idiom that describes someone who is trying to help but actually hindering? I find this a lot in a work context but sure it's common elsewhere. I even think there may be a term for this in improv comedy. Another possible application is those people who add comments that start with "I don't know but...."


That person can be considered 'well meaning' which describe a person who tries to help but tends to just get in the way.

Bob means well, but just keeps getting in the way.

A stronger version of this is 'well intentioned' which would describe a person who tries to help but tends to make things worse.
