How to save web pages to single archive file? Why MHT extension does not work anymore? Will it be added back to this 57 "Quantm" version or later?
Saving single file what is some general format should be standard feature for all internet browsers. I can print the page but it will not look the same and lot of info will be missing. I have been using .mht files and I don't understand why I cannot now open those files with firefox anymore. The browser was automatically updated, maybe I must install the previous version (if it is even possible) back and try to disable updates?

A person would think that it should be standard, but that's the problem - it was never adopted by W3C as a true "standard". MHTML was proposed by Microsoft back in 1999 but the consortium never made it an official standard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MHTML
And IMO, much to Mozilla detriment they strictly stick to "standards", except when they can't or its inconvenient for them to do so.
Firefox had limped along with the availability of the MAFF and unMHT extensions for many years, but now those two extensions are now dead as a result of WE coming into play.
There's this new WebExtension that might work as a replacement for MAFF / unMHT, but I wonder how well it will handle the 10+ years of MHTML files that I saved with unMHT ? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/save-page-we/ Save Page WE Save a complete web page (or just its current state) as a single HTML enhanced file that can be displayed in any browser.
