As up upgrade this morning Firefox no longer opens .CSV files on downloads. We don't want to download the actual file. It used to go to ../temp where it was cleaned up after a few days. We would save it where we needed it.

How can I get it back to where it opens a CSV in excel like it used too? I have looked at and tried all the articles i could find in support with no luck.

Fairly urgent. Thanks

You would have to open the file in download panel via the right-click context menu of this item during the download or once downloaded. To facilitate this they have decided to always open this panel when you download a file. All files are downloaded to the default download folder unless you use "Always Ask" and files you previously opened are no longer saved to the temp folder.
