What is export original + setting?
What is the export original + settings? I see that when it saves, there is an .XMP file with each photo? Thanks for your help!

Original + Settings means Lightroom will export the original file plus the edits in an XMP sidecar file if the original is raw. If the original is DNG or some RGB format (jpg, tiff, psd) then the settings will be saved in the metadata of the original file itself, so no sidecar file. As you already noticed, Lightroom Classic and other Adobe products will read those settings.
