A couple of weeks ago Firefox stopped downloading my daily paper. Today, I uninstalled Firefox & reinstalled it from the Google play store. It still won't d/l . The circles go around as if d/l'ing but it doesn't doit. I am using my Samsung Galaxy Tab S4. I prefer using the Firefox browser rather than Chrome because Firefox is faster and is my default browser. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi

What type of file are you trying to download?

Do you have a link to the file that you can share?

It's a pdf file since I have the option to open the file using Adobe Acrobat reader. I took screenshots but can only upload one at a time. Hope they will help you "see" my problem.

Due to file size, I had to crop the photo. Sorry.

Last one showing the download. There was an arrow top left on full screenshot showing the download but then I got the message saying "download failed ".

Any ideas? Thanks for any suggestions.
