Hey all,

I'm running Firefox Quantum 60.0.2 on Windows 10 Pro machine and I've downloaded several .rar files in this running session, although I opened them successfully with Winrar but they are vanished from my 'Downloads' folder and can't find them even by searching them and I've the hidden files options turned 'on'.

How to fix this please ?

This means your A/V scan and detected malware or virus and deleted. This isn't not FF issue that that happened.

Did you download as in save the .rar files to disk first and then opened in Winrar or did you just have them open in Winrar.
