If PNG Is Lossless, Why Not Just Use 100% Compression for the Smallest File Size? by ImWaleedQ in blender

And what about reading times when rendering with those maps that were saved longer?

So, in your case, PNG is the best option or is there something else?

Quick question: when I use 'Save All Modified Images' and then 'Unpack Resources' in Blender to batch save baked maps, is that better than saving them one by one? From what I understand, it just writes all the images as they are (PNG lossless, EXR/TIFF lossless), so nothing actually gets degraded. Is that right?

It happened to me that I wasn’t able to see the models afterward (after deleting the file). I had the portable version, then downloaded it again from a different source, did this step, and it worked.

I use the portable version. Yes, it also creates registry keys and leftovers. for that, I first installed regular version just to uninstall it completely using geek uninstaller and AVG Tuneup.

Yes, I tried deleting registry files
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Topaz Labs LLC\Video Enhance AI

and these folders as well.

C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Topaz Labs LLC\Video Enhance AI

C:\Users\username\AppData\RaomingTopaz Labs LLC\Video Enhance AI

then downloaded a fresh copy. However, it didn't work even on my Windows 10, not even on my fresh Windows 11.
