Hi! I want to download the "Photoshow" add on. I can't because it says "Download the new Firefox and get the extension". When I check for updates it for Firefox it says I'm all updated. When I click the "download new firefox" I get the message "Your download was interrupted. But all is not lost." I really want this add-on. Is there another way to get it or to solve my problem? Thanks!

I have been using pro cococut for several years with Firefox and have an issue with downloading and saving a file that is over 1Gig, the screen shows that the file downloaded but, when I try to save the file it errors out that there was not sufficient memory and will at times actually becomes locked-up & kick me out of Firefox. Most of the time I have to hit Ct-Alt-Delete and end Firefox/Mozilla. Don't know what to do to remedy this error. All files less than 1Gig download and save with no issue.

I am at my wit's end with this. checked every single post on every website but nothing works. anything larger than 30 megabytes always fails in the middle and I have to keep resuming it. It also keeps giving me the same error message "Downloads\example.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. Try again later, or contact the server administrator." I have tried safe mode. I tried changing the download location, it still tells me that the .part file in the Downloads folder can't be read. This .part problem started recently after a firefox update for me. But the downloads getting cancelled for no apparent reason has been a forever problem. Is switching back to Chrome the only real solution? (I've been told this)

So I recently reinstalled windows and noticed that if I select the option that asks me each time where a file should be saved before downloading it, the browser appears to begin downloading the file (I can see the .part file in the default folder) but the window that actually allows me to browse for a location in windows explorer never shows up and thus, I am not able to actually download the file. However, if I select the "pick a folder and everything will download to that folder" option, it downloads just fine. I'm wondering if there was a way to reinstall firefox but keep all if not most of my settings and tabs etc.

[Bug] Android Download Cancelled When Firefox is Swiped from Recent Apps (Fenix)

Description of the Issue ​When I start a file download (especially a large file) in Firefox for Android and then use the Recent Apps/Overview screen to swipe the Firefox app away (closing the app), the download process is immediately cancelled and cannot be resumed. ​Expected Behavior ​An active, background download should continue running even if the user closes the main Firefox application window by swiping it away from the Recent Apps list, or it should at least become a resumable failed download. Many other Android apps (like Chrome, dedicated download managers, or media players) can maintain active background tasks even when swiped from recents. ​Steps to Reproduce ​Open Firefox for Android. ​Navigate to a website with a large file (e.g., a 200MB test file). ​Start the download and confirm it is active (visible in the notification panel). ​Press the Home button (or swipe up) to go to the main home screen. ​Open the Recent Apps / Overview screen. ​Swipe the Firefox app card away to close it completely. ​Check the Android notification panel and the Firefox Downloads history. ​Actual Result ​The active download is immediately and permanently cancelled. It must be started again from the beginning, leading to data waste and user frustration, especially on slow or unstable connections.

I had some AI models downloaded, but noticed recently that the AI tab grouping wasn't working. I saw that the models for this were listed as being 0 bytes in size. I deleted all installed models and now can't install any as they always show as being 0 bytes.

I'm able to install the models when using a new profile. I have tried in troubleshooting mode and disabling all extensions using my profile normally but neither of these actions have worked.

I'm running Windows 11, 25H2, on ARM64, with the latest version of Firefox installed.
