Hello, Firefox won't save my download history between sessions, history is set to remember. I tried doing the refresh on the installer and even reinstalling firefox and deleting all mozilla folders in %localappdata% and %appdata% before reinstalling. it just forgets all downloads once I close firefox.

Greetings Team,

I just wanted to highlight a thing constantly bothering me while saving file through the browser.

Whenever I try to save file by default "UTF-8" is adding at the start of the file name I wanted to save.

Kindly look into this.

Hi, I'm running into an issue where when I download a CSV-file from a website it's downloading as a pdf when it should be downloading as a csv. If I after the download rename the file back to the csv-extension, I can open it in Excel. Any ideas? I run Linux on my laptop.

Dear Firefox Team,

I am writing to suggest a new feature that I believe would significantly enhance the user experience in Firefox.

Currently, when we encounter a PDF file on the web, Firefox only allows us to view or download it as a PDF. It would be incredibly beneficial if, when a user clicks on a PDF link (or during the download prompt), there was an option to choose whether to download the file as a PDF or as a JPG image.

This functionality would save users a considerable amount of time and effort by eliminating the need to use third-party online converters or desktop software to transform PDFs into JPGs. This is particularly useful for extracting images or specific pages from documents for quick sharing, presentations, or website use.

I believe this feature aligns with Firefox's commitment to user convenience and efficiency. Thank you for considering this suggestion."

Убрал галочку в настройках с "Всегда выдавать запрос на сохранение файлов", он все равно при каждом сохранении спрашивает куда сохранить. Как теперь сохранять файлы без этого запроса?

Yesterday all of my PDF documents were converted or changed to "Firefox HTML Documents". The change was made without my consent or action, after I yesterday used my laptop File dropdown menu to "export" and convert six new Word documents into six PDFs, which were saved on my Toshiba laptop and intended for uploading and filing with a governmental body. My Toshiba laptop runs Windows 10. This error and unauthorized action by Mozilla Firefox affects many dozens of PDF documents that I have created and saved over the last decade and causes me great inconvenience and harm.

How can I restore my PDFs to their correct form and format as PDFs, not "Firefox HTML Documents", which may not be uploadable or usable with court, government or other website portals?

How can I prevent Mozilla Firefox from making this unauthorized error and conversion of PDF document again?

Additional Edit of my question - After reading comments from numerous others that had the same problem of unauthorized change of PDFs to Firefox HTML Documents, I have the following additional question. How can we contact someone at Mozilla to make them stop their destructive highjacking of people's documents? I'm a lawyer, so in my world tampering with someone's document, that is required by law to be submitted as a PDF, can have serious real world consequences. I'm sure this is true of many other people's documents in many other fields and businesses. Who can we contact at Mozilla to insist that Mozilla's tampering with PDFs has to stop immediately? If Mozilla will not stop misappropriating control and tampering with documents, people should be compensated for any harm that Mozilla causes to such a large number of people.

As the title says, today I started getting the windows popup about selecting an app to open that file type, every time I download one.

Edit: I figured it out

Whether the file is opened internally or directly downloaded to the desktop, the file name will be automatically changed to garbled text。This led to me manually correcting the file name to be correct every time I downloaded, and my installation of the "Download File Name Encoding" plugin was also ineffective.

Hi, I just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 home. One of the things that has changed is that my downloads don't stay. After closing Firefox the download is there but if you click on it it says "File missing or moved".

Recently I have been getting strange automatic downloads which I have seen before. They look like this: Dh3qd41m.htm, iTOaBR9n.htm There is 14 of them. What is causing them

Hi

I regularly update a JSON file from VMware. In the past (before March this year), when I clicked the link below, and then clicked "save", the file I was viewing was saved, as expected.

link text

Since I tried this in March, it would display the new updated file when I click on the link. I then click Save, and the old file that was last saved months back is saved. Even deleting the file in the Downloads folder still saves the old file data.

I found that if I deleted all cookies and cached data for vmware.com, that the next time the latest file would be saved. I last did that in June. Today, in July, I view the file as dated 18 July, but when saved, the data from 17 June is saved in Downloads.

I'm running the latest Windows 140.0.4 (64-bit) Firefox on Windows Server 2022.

Is this a bug with JSON files? Is there something I need to do? This used to work.

I can't download ANYTHING on Firefox I've been tempted to switch to Chrome again because of this like why can I not download I don't THINK I did anything wrong either and it's really becoming frustrating I'm sorry

Why would the developers of Firefox remove the ability to select where an attachment can be saved?

This is like going back to the dark ages of web browsing.

I receive many attachments for my job, I don't want them all to save in the same location. It's a pain to have to retrieve them from my "Downloads" (or whatever) folder, to put them where they belong. This is not a small thing. It's a real pain to have everything go to the same location.

Other browsers allow you to choose where to save a particular file. I think Firefox used to allow that, too. Why would you change this?

I use Firefox for my work emails, but I think I will need to switch to another browser. 

I support a number of people in my job. I have been recommending Firefox to use. That will stop now.

Since around April 2026 , the "Show in folder" option (in "Display the progression of ongoing downloads") does not work anymore when a file is downloaded on a NAS drive . I use a Qnap TS-231P NAS .
