Hi all,

I'm using Firefox 125.0 (64-bit) on Fedora and for file downloads, I have the options "Ask whether to open or save files" and "Always ask you where to save files" enabled.

This basically works, Firefox opens a file selection dialog and I can select where I want to save my downloads - so far, so good.

The weird thing is, the default location that is shown in this dialog seems to change every time I download a file. I would expect to see the last download location as the default option, but that is not what happens.

When I check about:config, I can see the last used download path is saved as browser.download.lastDir perfectly fine, but it is not set as the default for the next download.

Is there a parameter I can set so this last path is used again?

Thanks,

M.

Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

I just download a few versions of Firefox and the same last location came up every time. Even download from a different site and it goes to last download location. see screenshots

What Desktop? X11 or Wayland?

Thanks for your reply. It's X11, and you're right, it works as expected with the downloaded Firefox.

So I upgraded from 125 -> 128 and the problem seems to be solved, even when running several different profiles at once.

Hilfreich?
