Unable to save any files to disk

more options

I am not able to download any kind of file, from any kind of website to my disk. I am able to select open on the download dialog, and this will open the file and save it to the temp directory firefox uses for this function, but this does not save the files to disk/the download folder like I want to. I am unable to "Save image as..." as well, since this is considered a download. There is no record of these downloads even being attempted in the download history.

I have also found that I am able to download files if I disable my ability to choose where to download them to, but I don't want to have this feature disabled. I set browser.download.useDownloadDir = false for this. Since "Save image as..." still requires me to choose a directory, I am unable to download any images using Firefox.
