Is there a setting to automatically close the "please wait while we generate your document" page that pops up when downloading a pdf file?

I am constantly downloading pdf's and excel files from our company software which uses a web browser to access it. When I download a file, firefox generates a full screen pop up window that states "please wait while we generate your document." My problem with it is the fact that pop up window does not close after the download. I have to manually close the window. Is there a way to set that pop up window to close automatically after the file has finished downloading and is open in foxit reader or excel or word or whatever? Thanks, Tony

Hi,

You could try is to Disable the Foxit, Adobe and Office Plugins in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons and use the normal Firefox Open with (when you click on a link) to browse/open it in the required application.
