: Photoshop exports image but not layer mask (no transparency) I have a photo of a person. I used quick selection to select person and then a layer mask (which is linked) to get transparent
I have a photo of a person.
I used quick selection to select person and then a layer mask (which is linked) to get transparent background.
Looks fine in export window (background is checkerboard), but export png file is original photo with photo background, not transparent background.

First make sure you export the image to PNG-24, as PNG-8 only supports 256 indexed colour palette, and since it's a photo, it will most likely use colours without any alpha (or very limited alpha - just too many to choose from).
Then if you want to use it in a web, I would compress it using tinypng.org (fully supports alpha transparency).
note: PNG-24 with transparency actually makes it PNG-32 but that's not something you need to be concerned about.
Also, as @AndrewH has said in his comment, make sure that you check the box for transparency.
