Option "Open with" is grayed out on the download dialog
Hello,
After a few days I noticed that the option "open with" on the downloads dialog is always grayed out (see the attached picture).
If I go on the settings and tell the browser to not ask and open directly the file, it opens without any problem... (actually it shows an advertisement saying it is an executable file, but when I dismiss it, it opens)
Here are my system setup: Nom: Firefox Version: 130.0.1 Identifiant de compilation: 20240913135723 ID de distribution: mozilla-deb Canal de mise à jour: release Agent utilisateur: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0 Système d’exploitation: Linux 6.1.0-25-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.106-3 (2024-08-26) Thème du système d’exploitation: Breeze / Adwaita Binaire de l’application: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin
Does anybody else is having this issue? Any ideas on how can I fix it?
Thanks in advance for all your help,
Best regards, Marc
EDIT: I just tested the behavior on the "base" Firefox-ESR, and it works as expected, as you can see on the 2nd attached file, esr.png... Version: 28.2.0esr Identifiant de compilation: 20240826114743 ID de distribution: mozilla-deb Canal de mise à jour: esr

Try downloading the current version of Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release
Do you have the same issue with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode?
No issues for me. see screenshot

Hello and thanks for the quick reply :)
I just try to download the app directly from Mozilla, and I've got the same behavior (see attached picture firefox-bin).
I didn't said on my 1st post, but I had already tried to do on safe mode, and it changes nothing... For the time being I didn't try the refresh option, I'm trying to avoid all the configuration that might be involved...
Maybe it's related to the Debian version?
And when looking with more attention, on both your and on my ESR version I see 3 options:
- Open with Firefox
- Open with
- Save file
While on my "standard version" there are only the last two:
- Open with
- Save file

What happens under a different user account? Can we also try the same site to see if we have the same issue? Try your OS or another (wink wink) on a live usb stick to see if you have the same issue. You can also try Refreshing Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings
