I realize that if a file is served with mime type Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted, then its extension is changed by Firefox on Android to ".pgp". Apparently, Firefox for Android likes to modify extensions based on mime type.

Can this behavior be disabled?

When I try to download an image attachment, it previews the image in the browser where I must right click to "save image as", then click the back button to get back into email. I do not have the option to tell firefox what to do with jpg files in my settings. I have attached a screen grab of my settings. I do not want to switch back to chrome, but since I download images very frequently due to work, I might have to. Please help me figure this out! Thanks for your time -Shawn

Starting 2 days ago while using Firefox I haven't been able access documents from my saved documents and files on my computer to attach to emails or to work on through Firefox. If I switch to Chrome or Safari I don't have a problem Why is this happening all of a sudden? I have Carforms and when I try to access files on my computer to download into the real estate transaction it doesn't let me. I have also not been able to access youtube for months through Firefox.

Can you please advise thank you

PDF viewing / downloads

I am running 129.0.2 (64-bit) and I found an issue reported in October 2023 with version 119. I want to view a PDF file. Each time I click on the link (I am using Ravelry.com and this is NOT their issue. It is only in Firefox [Chrome & Edge don't do this]), the PDF is shown in a new tab AND downloaded, so if I open the PDF twice-just to test-the file is also downloaded-twice. I had it set to view in firefox, but it STILL downloads AND opens the view. I switched to ask every time and it opens the file AND downloads the file. When will Mozilla fix this flaw? I don't need 50 million copies of the file! AND If I don't want the PDF, I'm still stuck with the file.

I've set firefox not to save files but it keeps on saving them. I have tried all the setting so it will stop doing this with no success. It just keeps filling up my downloads folder and I have to search for the one or two documents I want.

It's got so bad I've had to stop using firefox.

Thanks Reg
