Hello, I am having problems with the download popup. Normally fire fox would give me a menu "what should firefox do with this file". Starting 3/11/2022 that popup does not show up anymore. I found that feature pretty helpful. Does anyone know how to put it back up? I already have the setting Always ask you where to save files checked.

I HAVE THE SAME ANNOYING PROBLEM!!!

I registered here because Firefox since last update is not open a file anymore, only ask for a place where to download it, but can't open it. Firefox is almost useless without this feature.

PLEASE FIX IT ASAP
