How to get rid of the pesky "copy" character when saving a png as a jpg using photoshop actions?

I tried that a long time ago. It doesn't work like that.

It's a big Adobe bug.

I'm talking about the action of the ps.

Hi @dublove 

Hope you are doing good!

Well in Photoshop actions, the "Copy" text appears because the file already exists or Photoshop auto-appends it. To prevent this:

1) Use "Save As" instead of "Save for Web".

2) In the Actions panel, enable "Override action 'Save As' Commands" when running the batch process.

3) Ensure the destination folder is empty or handle file naming manually.

This should stop Photoshop from adding "copy" to the filename.

Let me know if it resolved the issue.

Thankyou!

Screenshot please of the action step expanded or the output of the action, are you referring to © or " copy" something else?
