    File > Export > Layers to Files.

     

    Set format and destination in the dialog.

     

    EDIT: triple posting in one go here...actually, Stephen’s suggestion of selecting the layers and Export As is probably quicker and more convenient.

    Select all three layers in the Layers panel, then right-click and Export As.

     

    Otherwise a script can be used Export Layers to Files.

    They are the same command in different places.

     

    Adobe frequently gives us several ways to do something, because while one user prefers one way, another user prefers a different way. Your screenshots show the File menu and the context sensitive (right-click) menu, as well as the keyboard shortcut.
