PDFs download problem
PDFs on arXiv.org will not download on Firefox but fine on Microsoft Edge

When downloading a file, the file is saved to whatever location the settings tell the browser. When you want to view a file, it is first downloaded to temporary storage. Then it is opened. At some point, the temporary folders are cleaned out by the system.

Please explain the problem in detail. What happens? What is/are the exact error message(s) ?
thanks for your rapid response.
I checked further..all my Firefox websites send PDF downloads straight to my download folder instead of directly opening. This doesn't happen with Microsoft Edge ...but Firefox is always my default..and this change of behaviour occurred very recently...could a recent Mozila update have changed some setting ?
