Basically I want to keep it with pixels when I scale it.

just use the "box" filter when scaling. other programs may call this "nearest" or "point" filtering. it will not mix between pixel values at all when resizing.

There is no box filter.

It's not a "filter" like blur or edge detection, it's a setting in the various resize tools.

I made you a few screenshots, I hope that makes it clear

I have the same problem but actually there is no box filter in tool option, There are other filters like BSPline, Bell, Bicubic, Nearest neighbour and etc but not "Box"!

Another name for "Box" scaling is "Nearest Neighbor". It must have been renamed at some point. Please check if it is available there.
