I have my export settings to JPG quality Max of 7. But every time I "Export As" it always defaults to quality of 6 and I have to manually change it every time. This is the case in both PS and PS Beta. What can I do?

I have my export settings to JPG quality Max of 7. But every time I go to export an image and close "Export As" it always defaults to quality of 6 and I have to manually change it every time. This is the case in both PS and PS Beta. On a MAC. PS beta V27.9.0 What can I do?

@Sameer K yes I do have that set. But still not showing. It seems another user in this thread has a similar experience?

I am still in need of an answer as “Enable Legacy Save As” did not fix the problem. Thank you

Hey, @marathongranny212. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I am sorry for the delay in getting to your post.

In Photoshop's Settings > Export, change the Quick Export Format from PNG to JPG, set Quality to 7, and save this change. Now, you can export as a JPEG with quality set to 7 using Quick Export.

Thanks!
