I sometimes can't put a check mark for "Do this automatically for files like this from now on", when I'm downloading some files. Why not? How to fix?
Most files I click on, I want Firefox to download a copy to my laptop. I often have the option to put a check mark for "Do this automatically for files like this from now on". But sometimes, I can't. Why is that?

You can't select this option if the file is send with a generic file type like "application/octet-stream".
