Extracting selected raster data to new layer

Question

Hi. I have a 2016 NLCD raster layer that I selected certain NLCD Cover Classes from. I wanted to export the selected items to a new raster. After I select the cells, I then go to Data>Export Raster and export. However, the new raster is the same as the previous raster.

Is there no way to export selected cells from a raster?

Thanks. I don't normally work with raster data, so this was probably a very basic question.

I was just expecting the ability to export selected data using Data>Export Raster.

Extract by Attributes seems to be having an issue extracting the data I'm asking for.

In the gif below, I select several land cover classes, but when I go back in, they're unselected.

Yet, when I enable the SQL slider, they are in the statement box.

When I run this (regardless of the SQL slider's state), only one class is missing from the output.

Is this a bug? I'm running 2.4.3

There are a variety of ways to extract raster data, spatially and/or by attributes.
