Before PS 26.1 saving to Jpeg

I  really like Photoshop but occasionally improvements appear to be a backward step to me.

The easiest way to explain this change is that on all previous versions,  if I save a Raw image to Jpeg, do a change to the image,  then save again and it would automatically  save it back to the previous locasion and file format.  Now every option defaults to .PSD.  In preferences > File Handling,  I have the legacy box ticked  for Legacy Save As  but it doesn't help.   Pease return to save as previous file fomat.

It's probably 16 bits/channel, which is not supported in the jpeg specification.

 

Raw files now open in 16 bit depth by default. You can change it in Camera Raw preferences.
