When downloading photos in a series of tabs, the download site on my computer changes randomly.
I go to a site and click on photos opening each in a new tab. When I go to download each photo independently, many times the download file changes randomly and spontaneously. Sometimes it just reverts to my "My Download" file folder. I usually download the photos to my F: drive, an attached 2Tb disk. I create a folder and download the photo to that folder but sometimes it just goes to some other folder on my F: drive and sometimes to my "My Download" folder. I just want it to stay at the last folder created and not attempt to figure out where I want to save the photos.

The last used directory for the website (host) serving the file for download will be preselected in the file picker. If no download directory for the current website (host) has been stored, browser.download.lastDir will be used. You can disable this feature to remember a host based download directory by creating a new Boolean pref on the about:config page with the name browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite pref and set its value to false.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
You can delete the content-prefs.sqlite file in the Profile Folder to only remove settings stored in this file. That way you keep exceptions stored in permissions.sqlite that would get lost if you clear the "Site Preferences" via Clear Recent History.
