I would like firefox to not show download dialog at all to any type of file and just save all types of files including exe files. Is that possible? If so, how?

Hi, open Options (in the 3-bar menu unless you've moved it) > General tab - Downloads: Startup, home page, tabs, and download settings

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you!

Thank you Scribe for your answer, but unfortunately that doesn't help me. I've tried every setting and every flag I could find but nothing really solved my issue. I've came from chrome, which downloads every type of file without any warning or dialog by default, you just click download and it downloads. That's the only thing holding me back from Firefox, because I have to set every file type to download automatically and I can't even set the exe files to download automatically. What I'm looking for is an option to bypass all download dialogs and just download the file despite its type.

Oh okay then.. I'm gonna have to stick to chrome then. I'll keep Firefox installed though as I like it a bit more.. Thanks everyone.
