Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

What follows describes what I think is an annoying bug, and as I'm writing a draft of the bug report, I thought I'd post it here first to make sure it's understandable, and if possible to get others to confirm the bug.

In Tools - Settings - Files and Applications, with the following settings: - Always ask you where to save files is ON - What should Firefox do with other files? is set to Ask whether to open or save files

If a file type is not defined in the Applications list/grid, Firefox 140.4.0esr displays the Open or Save box (only Save for .exe files) If you click Save, FF opens a save window according —logically— to the path defined in Tools - Settings - Files and Applications - Downloads, so - The list of files shown to the right is correct, - But the path shown in the toolbar above it is wrong (> ComputerName > C:\ > in my case), - And the selected folder in the navigation column to the left is also wrong (ComputerName in my case)

and that always throws me off.

The bug appeared before FF v140.4.0

Test downloads - Go to https://openexr.com/en/latest/test_images/TestImages/AllHalfValues.htm and click the link below the AllHalfValues.exr title - Go to https://www.picsellia.com/post/tiff-tag-image-file-format and right-click on one of the pictures at the top, select Save Image as from the context menu.

Please post a brief message below to confirm or invalidate my finding. Thanks!

Bonjour, Comment forcer Firefox à toujours ouvrir un fichier .msg (outlook classic), au lieu d'avoir la fenêtre qui propose d’enregistrer (par défaut) ou bien d'ouvrir avec Outlook (mon choix) ? Merci.

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 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.

Hello! I am developing a web server, from which users can download large files. These files take a few seconds to generate, and cannot be generated ahead-of-time; only when a user requests them. The server therefore responds to such requests by first sending the HTTP response headers (without "Content-Length"), which can be written immediately, then generating the file, and sending the generated file as the response body.

In Chromium, this leads to the "Save As..." dialog appearing instantly, so the file can be generated & downloaded in the background while the user picks a location.

In Firefox (v132, linux x64), the "Save As..." dialog waits for the file to be generated before appearing, which is not user-friendly. During deeper testing, I discovered that Firefox appears to wait for my server to send at least 1 byte of data from the file (in the response body, after sending the HTTP response headers), before the "Save As..." dialog appears.

I have searched the Firefox settings and documentation but did not find anything that would explain this behavior. Is this a bug?

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

Firefox asked how i wanted to open documents and I said with Word and it is doing what I asked. I want to open it in PDF or something else because they dont open in word.

Hello,

I have noticed an issue with the download process. Perhaps it can be easily fixed. ( Is this the right place to report? )

Downloading a duplicate of a .tar.xz archive results in a corruption of the name extension, as the suffix should be placed one dot before;

ie. "fileName(2).tar.xz" and not "fileName.tar(2).xz" ;

It actually seamed a couple of times to be a corrupted download.

Thank yoouu

I Uploaded several jpg images to GitHub of various file-sizes using a command line tool called Upgit:

Image 2: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/futuremotiondev/general-storage/refs/heads/main/WallpapersTest3/aesthetic-black-wallpaper-for-pc-4.jpg

Image 3: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/futuremotiondev/general-storage/refs/heads/main/WallpapersTest3/alexander-popov-Vy2Bttl96_E-unsplash.jpg

Image 4: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/futuremotiondev/general-storage/refs/heads/main/WallpapersTest3/anders-jilden-AkUR27wtaxs-unsplash.jpg

Image 5: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/futuremotiondev/general-storage/refs/heads/main/WallpapersTest3/andre-benz-cXU6tNxhub0-unsplash.jpg

Notice that if you open image 5, it prompts to save it or open it in an external application (or just downloads it, depending on your download settings). All the other images just simply load and appear in their tabs.

Is there a configuration setting in about:config that determines the file size threshold for this behavior?

Try it yourself: Open image 5. It will prompt you or download the image automatically whereas the other images just display in tabs.

How can I disable this behavior?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello When i download files it has started to put UTF-8 before the name of the file ? Why is that ? Because it doesn't do it if i try it in another browser.
