newest version of Firefox displays download list instead of leaving it invisible until I want to see it. How do I turn this off?
I used to be able to download a file and continue browsing. Now, the list of downloaded files pops up from the menu bar and I have to close it every time. This is a real pain in the butt when I'm downloading dozens of files.
Does anyone know how I can turn this off?

Hi, there is a hidden setting for whether the panel opens:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button accepting the risk.

(2) In the search box in the page, type or paste browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the preference to switch the value from true to false
