I was for reason having to default to LibraOffice and I really did not like that. I switched to FireFox so that I can open files through this browser instead. For some reason I download the files and it should take me to view the file in FireFox. I cannot view it at all. I wanted to be able to view the files in FireFox and then I can sync it with Google Docs and then open some of my files into google docs and I do not have to deal with LibraOffice. Why can I not view my files?

What follows describes what I think is an annoying bug, and as I'm writing a draft of the bug report, I thought I'd post it here first to make sure it's understandable, and if possible to get others to confirm the bug.

In Tools - Settings - Files and Applications, with the following settings: - Always ask you where to save files is ON - What should Firefox do with other files? is set to Ask whether to open or save files

If a file type is not defined in the Applications list/grid, Firefox 140.4.0esr displays the Open or Save box (only Save for .exe files) If you click Save, FF opens a save window according —logically— to the path defined in Tools - Settings - Files and Applications - Downloads, so - The list of files shown to the right is correct, - But the path shown in the toolbar above it is wrong (> ComputerName > C:\ > in my case), - And the selected folder in the navigation column to the left is also wrong (ComputerName in my case)

and that always throws me off.

The bug appeared before FF v140.4.0

Test downloads - Go to https://openexr.com/en/latest/test_images/TestImages/AllHalfValues.htm and click the link below the AllHalfValues.exr title - Go to https://www.picsellia.com/post/tiff-tag-image-file-format and right-click on one of the pictures at the top, select Save Image as from the context menu.

Please post a brief message below to confirm or invalidate my finding. Thanks!

Long time ago it was the only thing we had: if you saved a file, you selected the folder. If you saved the next file, you selceted the folder, but the LRU (last recently used) was the default.

Now download folders depend on the domain, the filetype, the age of the user and the color of the T-shirt he wears. At least that's what I guess. Its so complicated, my IQ is not sufficient to understand it. And if you refuse to have it this way, its always stored to the Download folder.

After long research, opening the low level config page, identifying cryptic names of configuration properties and clicking away warnings I was able to deactivate domain specific download folders. It was so annoying, I immediately forgot how I did it.

Still I have to select the same path again and again and again for each filetype I want to store.

And the FileSelector has its own history, but the last folder I selected does not show. Why? Obviously its a fake history.

Dear Firefox Team,

I am writing to suggest a new feature that I believe would significantly enhance the user experience in Firefox.

Currently, when we encounter a PDF file on the web, Firefox only allows us to view or download it as a PDF. It would be incredibly beneficial if, when a user clicks on a PDF link (or during the download prompt), there was an option to choose whether to download the file as a PDF or as a JPG image.

This functionality would save users a considerable amount of time and effort by eliminating the need to use third-party online converters or desktop software to transform PDFs into JPGs. This is particularly useful for extracting images or specific pages from documents for quick sharing, presentations, or website use.

I believe this feature aligns with Firefox's commitment to user convenience and efficiency. Thank you for considering this suggestion."

Guten Abend, bisher konnte ich wenn ich mit Firefox arbeite und etwas herunter geladen habe, den Bereich für alle Downloads anzeigen immer als Tab anzeigen lassen, auch ohne dafür ein Addon zu installieren. Nachdem ich Firefox nun auf einem anderen Computer neu installiert habe, kriege ich diesen Bereich nur noch als neues Fenster angezeigt, was ich als sehr störend empfinde. Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen, wie ich das wieder so einstellen kann, das die Downloads wieder als Tab werden? ich weiß leider nicht mehr wie ich dies damals umgestellt hatte.

so I personally never use the Download Directory, because I anyway always select the Download location. but even though I set the location to XYZ it creates a ~/Download Directory. I Also tired to set the default download location directly to my Home directory, but it still creates the ~/Download Directory.

I am not sure if it's a bug or if I can disable it, or if Firefox need too do it. but it becomes annoying to always delete the ~/Download Directory.

maybe it is an OS septic problem? (ArchLinux btw) but I highly doubt that.

so why does it always, and I mean always create a ~/Download Directory when I download, even though I never selected it, it's Just empty e.c.t.
