I installed new version 46.0 today and immediately had problems.

I have an add-on that allows me to save a Web Page as MHT/Maff which is set to use the file name from the web page. Now, it's always blank and I have to fill in the name.

Worse, when I try to "Save as" files and images, there is no pop-up to pick a file location to save too.

I've already seen people raising these same issues.

Please fix this, or revert back to the prior working version.

Are you using this extension:

Mozilla Archive Format, with MHT and Faithful Save

According to one of the reviews, the latest beta test version does not have this problem:

Temporary Solution for Compatibility with FF46

Use Beta version 4.0b6.

Do you want to test that out and see whether it works? You can install that from the extensions "versions" page here:

jscher2000,

Thanks for the quick and accurate response.

I use "Mozilla Archive Format, with MHT and Faithful Save", but it was version 3.1.3. I installed the beta test version and it corrected both issues.

Thanks again,
