To save a jpeg in photoshop 2023 it looks like one has to 'save a copy'. This is seriously annoying, especially when one has hundreds of images to process. Does anybody know of a way to save a jpeg, without having to save a copy ?

As of 22.4.2 you can revert to the previous behavior in Preferences > File Handling > File Saving Options:

  • Enable Legacy Save As
  • Do not append Copy to filename

You're welcome, @Peter Carr . Apple changed their API and left Adobe to come up with a new plan for us.
