How can I remove the list of 20 recently saved items when you click on the arrow on the far right side of the File Name screen for images, web pages, ect?

When I right click and go save image/page/ect as the file save popup screen appears and on the right side of the File Name bar there is an arrow. If you click the arrow it shows the last 20? items that have been saved and their save location. Is there anyway to not have the list of recent items there or at the very least a way to clear them? I'm running Firefox 17 on Windows 7.

Also when you save items as you were typing in the name you want to save them as it used to show filenames with the same name as you type that are saved in that directory so instead of typing the whole filename or copy/pasting you could start typing a filename and then hit the up or down arrow, backspace and just change the end of the filename without having to retype the entire filename.

Hopefully you understand what I mean and can help me fix it, thanks.

On the first point, my list includes files saved from other applications (e.g., Paint and an Outlook macro), so I suspect this is a MRU list stored in the Windows registry. There might be some privacy or clean-up utilities designed to clear it; I haven't investigated it deeply.

On the second point, I still get a pop-up list. Is the problem that the matching has changed -- the list is not from the current directory, or do you not get the list at all?

It's in the proper directory. I can scroll down the window on the right and see the files but if I start typing the file name of one of them the autocomplete drop down thing that shows matching file names does not appear. In the back of my mind I'm starting to think a setting got changed and then the list of matching file names stopped appearing but I can't recall what setting may have been changed, if it was a firefox or microsoft change or for certain if anything got changed at all. Yeah I know I'm not helping my own cause but what can you do.

That is the toolbar button to open the new download manager.
You can drag that button into the toolbar palette if you do not want to see it.

If you prefer the old style download manager then you can set the the Boolean pref browser.download.useToolkitUI to true on the about:config page to get the classic download manager window.
