CS6 acting up

I have been using Photoshop CS6 for years. Lately, when I work on an image (Jpeg) and then save it to the desktop instead of the image on the desktop I see a white rectangle with the upper right corner folded over (like it's a piece of paper). If I drag the "paper"back into CS6 it doesn't open & I see a message that it cannot be opened because it's the wrong kind of image. If I check the properties it's a "file" not a Jpeg. However, if I drag it into Paintshop X6 it opens perfectly. I then save as a Jpeg I do see it as a picture on my desktop. What's UP???????? Thanks!

When you are saving an image, make sure the correct format is selected. It is the dropdown just below the file same. You might have accidently clicked on it.

How do you save the file format to the desktop?

If you "save as" and select jpeg, do you still have this problem?

You create a short cut to an image.

You ask PS CS6 to edit the short cut and it sends you packing, normal.

PaS X6 sees a short cut and follows the lead, simple as that.

Not PS CS6 fault's yours.

Yes. I tried the 3 options to save (optimize-which was the default and the other 2) And it did save in progressive once but then didn't.
