    Update to Photoshop 20.0.7. The file extension is now hidden by default but will automatically match the format selected in the Format pop-up.

    best is to add the file extension manually until there's an update.

    I just upgraded to Catalina, and discovered PS won't add file extensions.
    Did you get a resolution for this yet?

    Thanks for mentioning this, I also suspected it was the external drive saving that was the issue. I was unable to recreate it saving to my internal drive.

    Actually, I am also using an external SSD.  I will try saving to my internal SSD for now and hope they are working on a fix.  Thanks!

    Got the same problem. BUT - only when working on external drive.
    When I copy the images to the internal SSD it works.
    Annoying, but for me the only solution until an update.
    Hope that helps you too!
