When I have an email with an attachment, I can now only "save" the attachment. How can I open before I decide if I want to save?
I used to have an option to "open" attachments as well as "save" them. This ability has disappeared and I am unable to just "open" an attachment, or a form, for that matter, on a website. I can only "save". I have no idea why I can no longer "open" anything. How do I get this option again? I have tried settings for Mozilla and I don't see it there.
Very sad, am I.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.
- Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

I did a reset back to factory defaults and it did not fix the problem - - help!
It is not a webpage that I have trouble with, it is attachments to emails; both text and photos.
I have the same complaint. It's so annoying that I've stopped using Firefox and have gone back to Windows Internet Explorer.
