Selecting to open a file inside browser with Acrobat now always results in file being downloaded too.

I have the option set to always ask me if I want to open a pdf with browser, acrobat, or to download. I usually select open with Acrobat and, for the last few months, I have been getting an unwanted download as well. I found in the help articles that this is now the default action. For me, it usually means that at the end of a session i have to go to my desktop (my optioned destination for downloads) and clean it up by deleting every file I have looked at.

I recommend that you make that functionality optional. I just want to view the vast majority of things I open. For the few that I might want to download after viewing them, i would prefer to take a proactive step to download them after I have reviewed them.

You can possibly set this pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox use the temp folder.

  • about:config => browser.download.start_downloads_in_tmp_dir = true

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. If you get the warning page, you can click the "Accept the Risk and Continue" button.

Thank you!

Simple to do and seems to provide exactly the functionality I want.

By the way, and showing my lack of understanding, but is the temp dir to which the file is being sent the OS temp dir or something inside Firefox?

It is the OS temp directory as set via the TMP and TEMP environment variables.

Thanks yet again.
