Open an image automatically after "Save Image As..."

In Chrome when I save an image to disk it automatically opens the image in IrfanView (which is set as the default image viewer in Windows). Is there a way to make Firefox do this? Under Options / General / Applications there is now no choice for how to handle downloaded image files. There used to be a choice for jpgs but even when it was set to open with IrfanView it didn't work, so I followed the Support instructions on starting over by deleting the handler.json file, and now there is no choice. If I click on an image file and choose Save Image As... it saves the image fine without giving me any choices on how to handle the image, but I would like it if it opened the image automatically, as in Chrome. Just saves one step in image editing. Thanks.

I don't think Firefox has a "save and open" option. When you call a "Save As..." command, it's just that. When the server pushes a download, you get an Open option but that uses the TEMP folder, you can't control where the file is saved.

I think for now, saving first, then clicking the download arrow and opening the image from the drop-down, is the most efficient workflow.

Thanks. That's helpful. So what does the Option / General / Applications choices do? I thought those settings would open files after they were downloaded, such as for pdfs. Or is that different from Saving As?

There are two cases where Firefox uses the Application settings for files you download/retrieve from the web (they were formerly called Download Handlers):

(1) The file is not a type of content that Firefox can display, such as a Word document

(2) The server indicates that the file must be downloaded instead of displayed in a tab (Content-Disposition: attachment)

When you use a Save [something] As... command, Firefox will ignore the Application settings and always save the file.
