Firefox Community Forum

Since the installation of the last 2 beta releases, the folder which I have selected downloads to be placed in is being completely ignored.

In FF settings, I have selected downloads to be saved to my desktop. FF ignores that and downloads all selected downloads to my Documents folder. This is not what I'm after and I didn't have this issue with the Beta versions before.

Are any other Beta users experiencing the same issue with the latset beta release?

1. Downloaded the latest GIMP Version 3.0.4 from the Gimp Homepage.

2. Opened the "Download" Icon after download was completed and clicked the downloaded file "gimp-3.0.4-setup.exe".

3. Received the message "This version of GIMP requires Windows 10, or a newer version of Windows."

4. Opened the Windows "Downloads" folder directly.

5. Clicked the file "gimp-3.0.4-setup.exe." directly.

6. The app installed without an error.

Tried this a few times and the error message only appears when the exe-file is clicked from within the Firefox "Download" Icon

Checked in the properties of the exe-file and no "Compatibility mode" is set.

I am running Forefox Version 128.12.0esr (64-bit) on a Windows 11 Pro Version 23H2 desktop PC.

Hello,

I have noticed an issue with the download process. Perhaps it can be easily fixed. ( Is this the right place to report? )

Downloading a duplicate of a .tar.xz archive results in a corruption of the name extension, as the suffix should be placed one dot before;

ie. "fileName(2).tar.xz" and not "fileName.tar(2).xz" ;

It actually seamed a couple of times to be a corrupted download.

Thank yoouu
