This method is perfect for designers who want to batch export layers as PNG, JPG, or other formats without manually saving each file. This Photoshop export layers method will help you streamline your workflow and save valuable time. So let’s get started!
First edit your layers. I removed the background of these images and now I want to export each layer as a file.

Go to ‘File > Export > Layers to files’.
Select the file destination and a file name prefix. Then select if you want to export all your layers, or only the visible ones.
Choose a file type and select the settings you need. Then select ‘run’ to save your layers as files.

If you open the folder you selected as the destination, you will find your layers there as files!
And that’s how you quickly export your layers to files in Adobe Photoshop.
