downloading files on firefox

How do I tell Firefox what to do when I click on a link to a file (PDF, JPEG, Word, etc.). I want to have the options of either opening the file or saving it to a specific folder that I choose. I am 87 years old and somewhat computer-savvy, but please give me geezer-friendly instructions, step-by-step and click-by-click. Windows 10 and Firefox 101.

What happens now when I click on such a link is this: My only option is to save it -- and Firefox has chosen (apparently at random) a folder to save it to.

Hi jhromer1, This article should explain everything that you need to know about downloading files -

Manage file types and download actions in Firefox https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file

The rumor mill has it that there will be some changes coming out in version 102. This will be released tomorrow. You can review the

Release Notes https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/102.0/releasenotes/

when they become available.
