Question

Files saved for web have the temporary attribute (Ps beta)

I'm using Photoshop Beta 25.0 on Windows. When I export an image for web I usually do this by using the "web sharpen" feature of Tony Kuypers TK9 panel. No issues in the latest non-beta version. Was the plugin does is basically a bit of resizing and sharpening and then savin as jpeg. 

 

When I use this feature in the latest Beta 25.0 the exported jpeg seems to be always saved with two file system attributes A and T. The "T" attribute means "temporary" and makes problems. Because of the "temporary" attribute my NAS drive sync client ignores the file because it doesn't sync temporary files. This breaks my export workflow.

 

This didn't ever happen in the past productive versions so I think it might be a problem with  the beta.

We also have this problem. Users save images as JPGs and most (but also randomly) are saved with unsearchable AT attributes. Cannot figure out why, but this is a HUGE pain.

Encountered this problem today and also found it to be totally random on it happening. First thought was photoshop AI generated content being placed into the image was the cause, but not proven. 

Easiest fix was to download a small utility named bulkfilechanger which allows amending the file attributes from "AT" back to "A". The files then became included in search results. Drop all the files in and it will show a list of the attributes which can then be changed en masse.

So we have noticed this happen to our JPEGs too. These were saved using "Save As A Copy", on the full release of Photoshop 25.0

It's completely random whether it happens or not, and it's totally infuriating when it does, as it means the files aren't picked up by Microsoft's DFS for relicating between  our servers.

Anybody at Adobe that knows why this is happening?
