Hello.

In the new version of photoshop. JPEG option is not reflecting when trying to save file . It is defaulting to PSD all the time. In the past version the saving process was very fast.

I the past version: a raw files arrived as JPEG on the phososhop window from BRIDGE ( VIA RAW) , then to save the process was simple: Command/shift/s , then we named the file, then Command /Shift/ W and it was DONE.

Now, We have to SAVE AS , SCROL down to change FORMAT, close, then NOT SAVE the remaining RAW file, THEN CLOSE THIS ONE.

IT makes thing slower but there is the danger to save a PSD file in the group of FInal pictures and send them as PSD to client, which is obviously a problem considerting most clients wouldn't know what to do with this,

Thank you fo fixing this!!!

If you are on an M1 Mac and don't have access to Legacy Save As, you will need to Save As a Copy instead of Save As.

It's a simple fix -

Go to Photoshop Preferences/File Handling and check "Enable Legacy Save As".
