    No really as am sure the exported is JPEG, and the problem once i want to try again i see all the masks created are no longer working, so you have to start from scratch and probably won't get the same result as you don't remember the exact edits

    Hi ​@Taoufik382863570qrk, Can you let us know what your export settings are and send us a screenshot of what you are seeing? Or a screen recording of the export process would be really helpful. Thank you! ^CH

    When you’re exporting, are you possibly selecting “original” (which is the unedited file) instead of JPEG?
