Finder: Auto image conversion

My finder keeps converting all PNG files into JPG when dropped into the Download folder. Is there anyway to stop this.


Before this I was meddling with Automator to convert HEIC to JPG on the Finder. But I've already tried to undo this and remove the files created from Automator. I've even tried to reset my Finder by deleting the plist file. Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.

Right-click on your Downloads folder, and from the Services menu, click on the Folder Actions Setup… menu item. Uncheck anything acting on your Downloads folder. Additionally, your Quick Actions are stored in /Users/$USER/Library/Services folder.
