Hello, I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with Firefox downloading files? I couldn't download a file so, I went through all the steps to troubleshoot what was happening, after it all I decided it was probably best to reinstall firefox and see if that works. It didn't so, I started to write for help on here. When I went to take a screenshot of the download dialog, I noticed the "OK" button changed to clickable.

So, I tried it again with other buttons and it seems that's the only way I can get the button to stop being greyed out (previously, it was after a second it would automatically do it).

It's a little annoying having to press a key everytime I want to download something so, I was wondering if there was something I could do to get the previous behaviour (the automatic change after a few seconds). In the meantime I guess I just have to keep pressing some key....
