When capturing a screenshot, I used to save to desktop as default (as set in settings). Now, regardless of the default folder set in settings, FF always downloads to "Downloads" folder. Very irritating. So now I click the "always ask" checkbox in settings. Is this a bug or a feature???

Try to go to about:config and set

  • browser.screenshots.folderList = 2
