Firefox 98 no longer giving option to open or save file, just saves it to download folder which floods me with files

Firefox 98 no longer giving option to open or save file, it now just saves files to my Download folder, which I don't want. I use firefox for work, and I have to download literally hundreds of files, mainly generated excel spreadsheets, a day. The ability to have the option to just open the file from the temp folder that gets cleared when firefox closed was great. Now I have to fiddle with about:config to get back even a portion of what I was able to do before. currently i have browser.download.improvements_to_download_panel set to false, which helps, but there are just certain file types that ignore this setting, such as zip files and pdf files. Those still auto download to the Download folder, then I have to go hunt for them if I need to attach them to emails. It's a BAD feature. How do I revert it to do what it did pre ver 98?

i've tried everything, safe/troubleshoot mode, manually uninstalling and even refreshing firefox in normal or safe mode, the extension has the "Can't be removed" button the profile directory (/home/xxx/.mozilla/firefox/v6kxe18l.default-release-1648663005215/ for me) don't have a extension folder after refreshing firefox, when booting up i immediately get the extension reinstalled

This is clearely skooky behavior in my opinion and I really don't want this extension

Print dialog - It aint broke, so don't fix it. Bring back option for the default to system print dialog

Please bring back the option to let the system print dialog be the default. There's no need to fix what's not broken. I dislike the new FireFox dialog. I like and am used to the system print dialog, it works, does what I want, and it should be brought back for consistency with other applications.

I could previously fix this in about:config, but that option is now ignored.

I understand the desire to try something new, but it makes no sense to improve on what already works. And, to remove the about:config option means your imposing your will on me. FireFox never felt like an imposition before, this is like something I'd expect from Apple, not Mozilla.

Please bring back my choice and make it an easy configuration checkbox, no about:config voodoo.

Thanks!

Apologies if this sounds harsh, but is there an add-on that improves on Firefox's incredibly inefficient add-on ecosystem, specifically, add-on management? Something similar to what New Tab Override does for new tabs, but for the Add-on page?

In other browsers, it's a cinch to search for an installed extension: go to the browser's local Extensions page, and use the search field like any search engine, and get a list of candidates, if not the very one you wanted to see. Firefox, for some reason, wants you to scroll all the way down, including the disabled add-on section, while you carefully check every name, hoping you don't miss it (the many times I've jumped to the "Y" section to look for YouTube Enhancer, for example, and not finding it, going up one by one, only to find its proper name is Enhancer for YouTube).

That's fine for a few add-ons; it's time consuming and frustrating when you have a lot. There's a search field in the top left, sure, but instead of displaying what's already installed locally, it has to go online. Again, for some unstated reason I've yet to find (best guess: promotions). Also wondering why Cmd [or Ctrl for Windows users]+F4 doesn't work as it normally does for websites?

Is there another way that improves this method or eschews it entirely for one that's better?

Side Tip: when searching on addons.mozilla.org, don't use the drop down list with suggested add-ons. Always hit return to get the results; that way, you can use the back button to see the search results again, otherwise, you'll be typing the same keywords every time you want to check out the others.

FF 98.0.2 - just updated. Top five lines of FF are TINY - using the ZOOM function only enlarges the body of the webpage, not the top five lines, FF logo, menu bar,’ Bookmarks Toolbar, etc. All previous suggestions have been to use Zoom control or to adjust size in about:config. That is ignoring the problem. Some answers claim the problem is in system settings. However, this is a brand new out of the box computer, when I use the Microsoft Edge installed on it, the corresponding lines of that browser are functional, not microscopic, so I KNOW MOZILLA CAN DO BETTER. PLEASE DO!!! I'm not the only person going blind and crazy trying to read the top five lines and getting bad suggestions (though thank you all for trying.) I have another computer running FF 93.0 and I'm not updating that one until the latest version is fixed. Please see two pix taken at 240% zoom, both screen resolutions the same, 1366x768. It is clearly seen that the test on ver 93.0 is larger than on 98.0.2. And just for giggles, a shot of MS Edge...look at the size of the top lines. (I've done a ton of troubleshooting in my career. Something's not right.)

Hello,

Trying to just preview my rss feeds for my website. Before, typing the RSS feed link into the browser would at least produce some results. Now, it just asks to save file. I only want to preview it.

I've read around and can't find much on the actual feed reader side of firefox. On wikipedia, it says firefox still has a feed reader built in. Firefox support pages say live bookmarks were removed, etc. I just want to view the feed in browser.

I downloaded an addon "Feed Preview" or something similar, now I can view the feed in browser again. The thing is, this addons says it has access to ALL of my firefox data. I already feel some kind of way about downloading this app and then after asks for perms. So I'd prefer not to just use any "addon". RSS feed reader should come basic for browsers.

What is the best way around this? or is my browser just bugged?

Hi. Here's the problem. I've recently added a couple of extensions to Firefox (Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express & AdBlocker for YouTube™). I don't see the icon for these extensions in the toolbar. When I go to the toolbar customizing page, I don't see the icons in the list to add to toolbar. So I don't even know how to use the Youtube downloader extension when I can't even click on or open it in any way.

Hello,

I would like to install an extension but the extensions requires "Access your data for all websites".

Can I disable the add-on for the primary user profile & activate it ONLY for the secondary user profile?

The idea is that I can use the primary profile for day-to-day personal & business purposes & then use the 2nd profile ONLY when I need the add-on to be active.

Thank You!

I look for the smallest zoom possible on the Firefox settings to suit my eyes and I don't find it, there's 67% and 80%. 67 is too small and 80 too big. Unlike other browsers who offer 75% of zoom level, I really want it on Firefox too! If this could come up, it'll look pleasing!

Hello,

starting with deployment of version 98 all users do not have the possibility to chose the PDF handling when clicking on a link to a PDF.

In the release notes of version 98 Mozilla mentions that "in this release, you’ll also see that Firefox no longer asks what to do for each file by default. You won’t be prompted to choose a helper application or save to disk before downloading a file unless you have changed your download action setting for that type of file."

Source: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/98.0/releasenotes/

So this does mean that the list of file types and the possibilities on how to handle them is still available. All file types are still available, except PDF. This happens when installing 98 on a fresh machine or when upgrading from v. <98 to v. 98. It seems that the "handlers.json" is being modified during first use of version 98, PDF entry is being deleted.

Please could you have a look on that issue and let us know if you can reproduce / if you will fix it?

Regards, Sherlock

In Firefox Settings (General) there is a section 'applications' that allows you to [[choose an action based on file types|https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file#w_changing-download-actions]]; such as PDF (open in FF, save, etc)

This menu is not functional for me. When I click on the down arrow to change the option, it should open a list - but nothing happens.

I tried rebooting & restarting FF, but the issue remains.

I am using FF 98 on Linux Manjaro.

Recently (probably after an update) Firefox starts showing my list of downloads automatically and unwanted after each download. So I want to download a few MP3's from a website. I click on one, select the download option, and when it is done downloading a drop down display comes down from the Menu bar showing my last downloads. Obviously, as I download more, this list gets longer. I know I can make the list disappear by clicking anywhere on the screen, but it is an extra click to get rid of a feature I don't want. How do I turn that off?

Hello. I noticed that Firefox (98.0.2) doesn't even ask if the file should be saved or opened with a program when downloading some file types. Unfortunately, these file types (e.g. GPX) are not listed under Settings --> General --> Files and Applications, so that I could assign them to a program or specify that they should always be asked. And I can't add these files somehow... I have also deleted the file "handler.json" in the profile folder, hoping to be asked then. But that doesn't happen. GPX files, for example, are assigned to the GSAK program in the system - but Firefox just wants to save them and doesn't offer the option to open them directly in GSAK. Does anyone know advice how I can get Firefox to give me the choice? Thanks a lot.

When ever I start firefox, I receive two lines at the bottom of the home page - the first is a news feed (from Mozilla) and the second is a 'contributors' shout out. I've unchecked all the appropriate boxes in settings, and still no help. I've gone into about:config and ensured they are removed.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
