Ever since 149.02 update Firefox has been unable to download any images automatically. They are always 'canceled'. I have to manually click RETRY button for it to work.

I have been through a ton of possibilities with Gemini, none of which worked. Apart form totally reset Firefox, which I refuse to do because WTF !

Gemini gave up and suggested I post something on here. I'll just switch to Brave until 149.03 fixes it.

It sounds like the Firefox 149.02 update introduced a bug affecting automatic downloads. You can try clearing the download history and temporary files, disabling any download related extensions, or creating a new Firefox profile to see if that restores automatic image downloads without a full reset.
