I frequently make screenshots using Alt+Shift+4. The screenshot appears in the lower right corner and I used to be able to grab it with the mouse and move it into a folder, email, slack, message etc.

After the newest upgrade, this isn't possible anymore. I need to wait until the preview disappears, go into my folders and move it from there, which is very cumbersome.

When trying to use the new command + V shortcut, it copies the link to the dropbox but not the actual image.

How can I keep moving screenshots where I need them?

Windows shortcuts .lnk stopped working in Windows Firefox 137

Hello, After installing Firefox 137, Windows shortcuts stopped working within Firefox: for example I am on Google Mail writing a new email. If I want to attach a file to my email, I click on the classic paper clip, it opens a windows dialog box to browse my files and folders. Up to now, if I did double-click on a shortcut (a .lnk file) it would follow the shortcut (like if it was a folder shortcut it would open the corresponding folder) for me to choose a file ... As of 137 it attaches the shortcut, and tries to attach the whole content of the folder ! I tried the same operation on Chrome, it works ok. I tried the same operation on a different service on Firefox (Mattermost) I have the same problem, so my guess is that the problem is with Firefox 137. (this has been working properly for the last 10 years at least). And I made the test on MacOS, no problem, it's really with Firefox 137 on Windows. Anybody else seeing this ?

I run a blog and upload items daily, but EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. it opens the Desktop folder and not the last one that was used which is the downloads. So every time I have to point it to the Download folder for the file I want to upload. How do I stop it from doing that it's really annoying.

In the latest version 137, I've detected an error when uploading/attaching any file to a website. The error occurs when browsing files on the computer. When you click on a folder that's a shortcut, Firefox attaches it as a .lnk. Double clicking on the folder doesn't work To fix this, I have to right-click and open it. That way, I can navigate to the files in the folder.
