I'm using FF 76.0.1 on a Win10 platform. For testing, I've uploaded a folder that contain multiple MP4's to my Google Drive. I then Share this drive with my other email. I then want to download the content of these multiple files to a hard drive folder. Doing this to test how Download works for Google drive.

I open my received email and see the Shared invite. I log into my Google account and select the first file to download (using RT click and Download into a selected directory). A Save-As folder box opens. Everything works with the file downloading ultimately as a *.mp4 file. When I go back to the Google drive and attempt to down load a second file, I get the following pop up message... 

  - You are Not signed in
 - You are signed out.  Sign back in, the click 'Retry'....there is a Retry box.

The Sign back in (in the msg) does not work, nor does the Retry box! All that happens is the box refreshes.

What I end up doing is to close the Google My drive TAB, and re-select the invite email message. This opens a new tab again that points to my shared folder. I then select my 2nd file, and download..everything works. Now when I try a 3rd file, I end up getting the same Msg again and need to close the Tab and reload from the email the Google drive.

I have turned off any AD blocker on the Google drive. It's almost something is in a cookie or cache. I don't want to constantly have to reset any of these every time. Tried once, and made no difference. Any Idea, maybe something in the FF Settings?

What I want is to be able to repeatedly pick and download files from Google to my selected folder without having to re-select the email invite. I also notice, that on the second try, I don't get asked for my Google ID/Pass like I did the first time. It's like I was sent to a third party site (Save-as pop up box) and cannot come back to the folder listing. It would be nice if the Save-As location could be reused from the previous Save with a check box.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
