When I try to download music I have purchased from Bandcamp (www.bandcamp.com) the file that downloads (regardless of if i choose AAC fomat or FLAC) downloads as a TextEdit file which I can usually expand with StuffItExpander. However this no longer works, yet it works fine on Safari.

URL of such a file is download URL of such a purchase

Bandcamp support are unaware of any issues - I updated to Firefox 75.0.1 with no difference in the outcome.

Hello,

I just tried downloading the file from the link that you have provided and it prompt for the right file type download. Sometimes I have the same problem but haven't been able to replicate it. I would suggest visiting this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-download-or-save-files

Hopefully the page can help you resolve the issue.
