There seems to be a bug in the save as menu i cant see all the various formats that were there in the past.

I say it must be a bug because no company in their right mind would delete this function that was there since the dawn of day. Please fix this bug. And please dont give me you can change the shortcut key solution. thank you.

If it aint broken please dont fix it.

Hi, click on the save a copy to get all the other file options.

It is a change mandated by the operating system, To hide the formats where all the characteristics of the files are not supported, for instance layers in a jpeg file.

The best way to make sense of it: in a word processing application, you can save in the native format, but if you were to save the file as an image, you need to export it, as all functions are not there.

On Windows, you can also go to Edit/Preferences/File Handling and click on Enable legacy "Save As".
