When I download a file, the Download window opens, but no file details appear; it stays blank. To access the downloaded file, I have to open it from my Downloads file in Documents. This quirk showed up out of the blue one day, I have no idea why. Otherwise, this version of Firefox has been running smoothly since I installed it.
