Lightroom Classic Export to JPEG Help

[bluerog2]

Why? Why is Adobe making ANY change to my export settings? Right click, pick a folder - choose a folder, pick a format - choose JPEG. I generally go 80% quality. Used to be simple. 

Now... it's changed. I get it? Adobe wants folk to use DNG files (it's Adboe's afterall). But I want to use JPEG. WHY!!! is the option not available? Here are my screen shots when I try to export jpegs. There is no option top change to JPEG.

I've had options to change to JPEG before any updates. The below is greyed out.

When you put a check mark next to a preset, some options are grayed out.

The Learn More link will take you to this page:

Remove the checkmark, and all options become available.

I don't know why you think that Adobe wants you to use DNG – you can use any format you want from the Image format dropdown list.

I suggest that you create your own export presets, then you don't have to change the settings every time.

@Per Berntsenhas the answer.

False.

Put the checkmark only when you want to export using multiple presets in one go.
