Thank you for reporting a bug to Unity. When reproducing the bug, I can see that the platform specific compression settings for Mac, Windows + Linux is set to RGB Compressed DXT1, so Project Auditor seems to be reporting the correct thing. So even though the default compression in the Texture Importer UI is set to None, it is overridden by the platform. If you analyze a different platform, you should get a result that corresponds to the compression that platform will use.

Unity 6000.2 has reached its end of life and will not receive further updates. If you need additional fixes, please upgrade to a newer Unity version.

How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "TextureAuditor" project
2. Go to Window -> Analysis -> Project Auditor -> Start Analysis
3. In Project Auditor, go to Assets -> Textures -> "rustic-gray-concrete-textured-background"
4. Observe the "Compression" column

Expected results: The value is "Uncompressed"
Actual results: The value is "Compressed"

Reproducible with: 6000.2.11f1, 6000.3.0b10, 6000.4.0a5, 6000.5.0a1

Reproducible on: macOS Tahoe 26 (M1)
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested
