Firefox 139.0.1 (64-Bit)

Hello to everybody, I repeat my question and hope it can besolved persistantly: Opening local .mdb files (MS Access database) does no longer work in Firefox 139, but was ok in previous releases. The only choice is to save the file rather than opening it with the application MS access. Under Firefox settings/applications the file type .mdb does not appear, nor do I have a choice to decide how to open it. I expect to find an entry for .mdb files where to choose "always ask" as was the case earlier. Please help! Regards Volker Zipp

Hi Volker, could you try this:

After downloading the file, open the Downloads list using either:

  • Click the downloads button on the toolbar
  • Press Ctrl+J to open the full list

Right-click the database file and try "Always Open Similar Files" if that is available. This should create an entry for the relevant content-type in the Applications list on the Settings page set to open MDB files in the system default application.

Sometimes, the server does not send Firefox an Access-specific Content-Type header (like "application/vnd.msaccess") and instead sends either the generic binary Content-Type ("application/octet-stream") that Firefox can't limit to one file type or a fictitious Content-Type (like "application/x-download"). In these cases, Firefox usually cannot connect the download to your system settings for .mdb files. I have an add-on to address that situation if needed.
