    DFosse is correct that saving or exporting  from Photoshop (raster) to SVG (vector) is a bad idea.

     

    Adobe Illustrator is a vector application. To create SVG from vector artwork in Illustrator, you can use Save or Save As. The SVG file can be edited in Illustrator.

     

    From Adobe Help:

     

     

    Note:

    With the April 2022 release of Photoshop 23.3, the Export As dialog is supported by UXP (Unified Extensibility Platform) and not Common Extensibility Platform (CEP) because UXP supports more modern features and is simpler to design.

     

    Export As SVG support in Photoshop has always been experimental. With the August release of Photoshop 22.5, this feature has been discontinued due to low usage and limitations.

    This is a very bad idea. Resaving a PNG to SVG results in an SVG with raster content.

     

    But SVG is a vector format and vector content is what is expected from an SVG. That is the whole purpose of the SVG format.

     

    If you're going to make SVGs, use a vector application like Illustrator.
