Auto downloading all files in Firefox 98
PLEASE help me find a way around this 'so called' improvement of auto downloading any attachment or file to my Downloads folder without any choice from me. I have checked the 'always ask' in General settings, waste of time. When prompt asks what you want to do, it auto downloads even if you say open and do NOT check save option. This is MAJOR frustrating, makes extra work for me to have to remember to go back to Downloads to delete all these files. We should have the right to make that decision on whether or not we want to save it to our computers and take up space. I view many files daily, most are NEVER saved...PLEASE either UNDO this feature you have implemented or give us a way to work around it, ie: make the General settings option actually apply as to what we select, at present this option is NOT working.

Hello, I am sorry for the problems you are experiencing with the management of your file downloads, here is a link where you can find more information about how to manage and configure the download center in Firefox 98 How file downloads are handled in Firefox version 98 and above
It seems we are stuck with the change. There is a preference you can change to give you a choice of the download destination if you are interested. Otherwise, the thread linked below contains a temporary workaround.
Version 98 screwed up everything about file management
I have users that are now downloading the same file 20 times or more because FF doesn't ask what to do anymore it just blatantly saves to the download folder - When software developers muck with a users settings bad things will happen.
The developers need to learn ask for permissions before you screw me by changing my setting - I didn't want to change to Opera but WTF Mozilla
Another example - I used to be able to look at the contents of a zip file in windows explorer. If I only wanted 2 of the many files listed in the archive I could put a tick mark on both files and then drag them to my mozilla window and the files would get copied there - Well that no longer works. I must export all the files out my archive copy the two want to mozilla then delete everything I just Exported -_ NOT GOOD, LOST PRODUCTIVITY
