Mac OS Sequoia 15.3, Lightroom version 8.1

When I Select "Edit in Photoshop" both choices "Edit in Photoshop" and "Open as a Smart Object in Photoshop" will open as a Smart Object.  Edit in Photoshop should not open as aSmart Object.

Hey @donald23080890g18y! 👋 Welcome to the community!

I've been testing on my end with JPG and NEF files, and the feature works fine for me. In Photoshop, the photo isn't opening as a Smart Object. Could you share more details? Is this happening with every photo or just certain ones?

Thanks a ton!

It happens with all files. JPG, HEIC, ARW, even TIF files that came from Photoshop are opening as a Smart Object no matter which choice I choose
