Thank you for your feedback, can you confirm if File Explorer has the same behavior?

[fellipec]

On Windows Explorer the file is saved with the original extension, i.e. jpg, webp, png...

I was able to reproduce this issue with Firefox. I'm not so sure about the fix but the underlying issue is in this code https://github.com/files-community/Files/blob/main/src/Files.App/Utils/Storage/Operations/FilesystemHelpers.cs#L781. As it currently stands, this issue doesn't affect Microsoft Edge.
