Firefox download directory changes Anonymous 2017-09-03 02:40:59 Post No. 62232100 [Report]
I've had this problem for years but today it's really pissing me off. I've tried Google but nobody has a solution and most suggestions are for settings in about:config that no longer exists.

Firefox keeps changing where to download images or files. It can work fine 100 times in a row then randomly change to some other folder and it's driving me nuts to have to constantly check which folder I'm in instead of just saving.

Is there a fucking solution to this problem???

You're going to need to narrow things down to try and isolate whats causing the issue. I've been running Firefox for years (currently latest release) and have never seen this behavior. Is the directory/file path the same or is being changed? Do you have any download assistant programs or plugins that might be over-ridding your settings?

When downloading a file it is saved to the folder you have configured in your settings.
When doing "save image as" I think it remembers last download location per website (possibly same when dowloading files when configured to ask for location each time).

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
