Trying to download a QFX file to an account in my Quicken Classic file. I have done it 100's of times without issue. Now Firefox is downloading the file as a PDF not a QFX. How do I correct the error? Instead of the data from the bank downloading to my Quicken account, this shows on my screen. "PDF VIEWER PLUS SE" "CANNOT OPEN FILE C:/users/herb/downloads/transactions-68.qfx" How can I fix this?

I have windows 10. Every time I download a file and then go to open it, I get "File Download-Security Warning" this is new and never got that before. How do i eliminate the warning . This only happens when using Firefox..Chrome works fine. I have tried everything and changed more setting in the registry that i can count and have asked Perplexity and Grok plenty of questions with no positive results.

I have personal files on rapidgator.net & premium account. if i try to download one of this files on firefox my speed is only 2-4Mb/s if i try to download with JDownloader the speed is 45-55Mb/s (one single file) This has been happening since October 2025...

Hi, on my new PC with Windows 11 Firefox shows "save as" window after the download is complite. How can I change it so that this window appears before download starts?

I am unable to download Gmail attachments, they are getting downloaded without extension and this is happening since last few days.

This didn't use to happen before, tried and tested with multiple emails and multiple attachments, if I refresh the browser and then try immediately it works correctly, but if I leave the browser idle or navitgate through multiple emails then it gets downloaded without extenstion. Tried clearing cache for all websites, still it persists.

After migration to new PC I created the default folder for Downloads as the Desktop. As during a rebuild the Dowload Folder is deleted. I deleted the Folder " Downloads". I now want to change the default back to a new folder called Downloads. I cannot in Settings get it to take this folder, cannot delete the existing folder (C:\Users\James Euler\Desktop\Downloads). How should I proceed to return to Downloads, or where should I place the new folder "Downloads" so that it becomes the default location for each download? Where should this Download Folder be located?Thanks in advance, as I had no problem making the new default. James

Firefox for Android is my favorite, but its download manager is not that special, sometimes a file gets downloaded, but mostly the big files fail and do not get downloaded at all, I request you to make the firefox download manager even better like the download manager of Brave and Chrome browser.

Hello,

Can you please assist with the following download issue?

Firefox often, though not always, is very slow to download files, and when this occurs, I am unable to search by others tabs etc. I can download the same file using Edge on the same computer "instantaneously". Firefox returns to normal operation ~ 10 seconds after I cancel the download.

I unsuccessfully attempted to search for solutions.

Thanks and regards.

Today Firefox updated in my laptop (I have Windows 11) to its current 157.0 version, I found out that when I download something (and it is saved in my Downloads folder), whenever I want to upload ANYTHING to any other website I can upload something, the path somewhat gets stuck in the Downloads folder. ANYTHING.

I closed Firefox, thinking this was probably an error or something similar since it updated, I open again. I try to upload anything, the last path it remembers is exactly the one from where I'm uploading a file, but it's the same in every website I am using (instead of Firefox remembering the paths from each website I have used, for example, it would normally be Documents in "y", a random folder in Documents in "z", but now it's Documents in y, z, etc.). And then, I decide to download something... and then it gets stuck in the Downloads folder again. And it gets reset as I close and open Firefox.

I dunno what to do, haha. It's very annoying, because it's extra clicks... and then the path getting defaulted to Downloads if I'm downloading something, like saving an image.

This is probably a bug... as I didn't have this problem yesterday, and coincidently! This just started happening as Firefox updated to 157 (I also tested this in another profile I have for testing purposes - it's exactly the same behavior). I might have to report this as a bug.

I don't even know where to look at to "restore" this, I have searched a bit (if that's located in about:config), but frankly? I have found nothing, and those options I see suggested elsewhere are empty fields or I have to add them in the config flags? I also don't know about coding, tbh.

Is there a way to fix this or wait until Mozilla recognizes it might be a bug?

Anyone know if the Firefox app will be in the Microsoft Store soon for download?

I bought a new computer and if I download the app from the website I will permanently be taken out of S mode (I’m sure you guys are aware of this issue).

Im hoping the app will be available through the Microsoft Store very soon because I only use the Firefox browser on all of my other devices.

Is there a way around it other than permanently switching out of S mode and downloading? I’m aware I can do that but prefer not to.

Thank you!

Can you please enlighten me on the internal protocol FF follows when downloads are set to "Always ask you were to save files"? I want that dialog to always default to the previously used folder, but it only does that about 70% of the time (in my guesstimation). The rest of the time it randomly decides it doesn't want to do that and it will pop up the Windows Downloads folder instead.

Sometimes it will do that even right in the middle of a mass-download session where I'm downloading, say, 15 items, doing the right-click/save thing, and after 10 items in which the Save-to dialog has defaulted to the folder I want, it will suddenly decide that it wants to go back to Windows Downloads, and because I'm on autopilot with my keystroke routine, I might go through all 5 final downloads before I notice that it's not saving to the right folder anymore. This is EXTREMELY annoying.

What prompts my current post is that I've just started another session of about 10-15 downloads, but this time I'm five files in and FF is still refusing to default to my desired folder. It's not uncommon for it to take two tries before the folder I want sticks, but not five. It's now officially way uncool to continue navigating there every single damn time.

So please tell me why this happens.

And no, please don't recommend that I temporarily change the default downloads folder and just set it to permanently download there, then change it back to "Always ask" after each session. First, that's an unworthy kludge. Second, I always change the filenames of downloaded files--if nothing else, I always remove underscores or spaces to conserve filename length because I've been severely bitten by that limitation once too many times. Therefore I must use the "Always ask" dialog. It's why I don't usually use Downthemall, fab piece of software though it be.

TIA. NB: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1591345 is a similar question but answer offered no help. Also after 5 more file downloads during my current session in which FF continues to never default to the previously used folder, I've just given up and stopped downloading for now.

Dear Developer,

Please add an option in Settings to select a default external download manager (e.g. 1DM+, ADM, etc.) for all downloads. Currently, Firefox shows the "Download file with" chooser every time. It would be much more convenient if users could enable an "Always use selected external downloader" option, so downloads are sent directly to the chosen app without displaying the chooser each time. This would make downloading faster and provide a smoother user experience. Thank you for considering this feature.❤
