downloaded Applications what to do with
I was having problems with my email and was looking more closely at those settings as well as firefox/ deleted cache, cookies , etc. 5 months ago my email was hacked so I am being extra cautious....
I just discovered there are many items listed that say to save the application. I do not recall adding these.... How did they get there? I recall whatever was listed I chose that I be asked what to do with it. Here is a screenprint so you can see what the items are. I use Linux. The only change I made after seeing this is to ask me about anything not listed. The answer had been to save. Should I change them all to ask me? Most of the items I do not use and or know what they are. Thanks ! [email-removed]

That is a section which enables you to choose what should be done with any specified file. Click the down arrow alongside each to show other options.
Terry,
I realize how to change the status. My question was how did all the items get put there since I did not add them? I also want to edit my question to remove my email. Or even delete my question... How do I do that?
Is this question viewable now to anyone searching this topic?
If I cannot edit it, can an administrator or staff member remove my email from my question ? Thanks. libre2012
I've removed the email address.
You can find "Edit this question" under the "Question Tools" menu in the sidebar. For a reply, Edit is in the three dot menu next to a reply.

Thanks for removing email. How did the items end up in that list since I did not add them? Thanks. libre2012

The browser typically has added items to the list. With recent versions many have lost items from the list. The items are contained in a file handlers.json.
