Hello!

 Since some days I have the problem that all files I download from outlook are accompanied by a preceding UTF-8 in the file name. This is not the case for e.g. google chrome. Can I fix this problem by myself, or is it a general problem of firefox 128.9esr (64-bit)?

I am trying to download videos from a site that I newly subscribed to. The videos do stream perfectly. The files do not download as video files and will not open at all. When I click on the download link, there is no recognition of a download happening and when I check my files later I have an "internet" file showing with a title but without a video file extension and nothing will open. The file extension is ".html". I am following the step by step instructions from the site involved. Other sites videos are downloading as expected.

Does firefox need to be my default browser? Any suggestions how to remedy this without losing what is working? Are there plug-ins that can address this issue?

Thanks.

Hello, We use the following code (in a Dockerfile) to download the latest Firefox for testing.

curl -fsSL -o /tmp/firefox.tar.bz2 "https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-latest-ssl&os=linux64&lang=en-US" && tar -C /tmp -xjf /tmp/firefox.tar.bz2 firefox

Starting with 135.0 the tar command fails with:

bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now 

134.0.2 works: curl -fsSL -o /tmp/firefox.tar.bz2 "https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-134.0.2....

A couple questions: - What has changed? Is there some other way we need to download and uncompress? - Is there any documentation of the supported query params for https://download.mozilla.org

Thanks, Paul

I have my Firefox browser set to ask me where I would like to save my downloads. However, it never asks me. It just automatically sends everything to my downloads folder then opens the file in a new window. I then have to go into my downloads folder and save it where I want to save it. So I must go through the saving process twice. Given that I download a lot of files for my business, this gets real old real quick. I don't have this problem with Chrome. I would like to stick with Firefox, but I'm going to have to make a change if I can't get this issue fixes.

As I was downloading a video from Google Photos, it showed the yellow by the download arrow and said it failed. I tried multiple file types: mpeg, jpeg, mp4, exe. I googled what to do and my answer was: Disable extensions, start in safe mode, clear cookies, clear history, clear download history. I did all that and I can still not download. I restarted my computer and nothing changed. on FF version 136.0.2

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!
