After FF98 they changed and removed user actions how and where to save locations and folders.This is something they don't want you to know. But it's also Use at your Own Risk so read carefully before doing so.

Again this is a outdated fix you keep copy+pasting from a old article as you still seem to not know or accept. Your old information was only valid for Firefox 98.0-101.0 as the Preference changed for 102.0 to current.

The Preference for Fx 102.0 to current is actually browser.download.start_downloads_in_tmp_dir

Your last post on this in thread was hidden due to misinformation and plagiarism due to not giving source. btw there has been a newer updated article https://www.askvg.com/tip-force-firefox-to-start-downloads-in-temp-folder-again/ than the old one you keep copying from

Ignore the Post you may have seen from Dropa as it had wrong information that he still keeps posting.

The Preference for Fx 102.0 to current is browser.download.start_downloads_in_tmp_dir where you toggle it to true in about:config

Please be careful with all about:config changes. Please read Firefox Advanced Customization and Configuration Options and Configuration Editor for Firefox to learn more.
