How do I set Firefox to automatically open downloads instead of having to go to my downloads and double click to open?

Whenever I have used Firefox on a PC it at least gave me the option to open certain file types automatically. I download a lot of files and the time adds up when I have to open the downloads box and double click on the file each time.
