Issue with “Always ask where to save files” option behaving differently in Windows 7 vs Windows 10

Hello, I would like to ask why Firefox behaves differently regarding file downloads in Windows 7 and Windows 10.

In Windows 7, when I enable the option “Always ask you where to save files”, Firefox respects my choice and allows me to directly select the folder where I want to save the file.

However, in Windows 10, even though I have this option enabled, Firefox does not respect my choice. Instead, it first downloads everything into the Downloads folder, and then I have to manually move the files myself. It does not automatically ask me where I want to save the file, nor does it move it to my chosen folder.

This makes my work process more complicated and time-consuming. Could you please explain why this difference exists between Windows 7 and Windows 10, and if there is a way to restore the old behavior so Firefox asks before downloading?

Thank you very much.
