Hello there,

Since i have been using Firefox, i am very satisfied. In my case it is faster and better as any other browser. There is just one problem: When i download any file of the internet, Firefox puts the file in the Local Temp folder. I have changed the download folder from downloads to documents, but it still puts all download in the Local Temp folder. Can you help me?

It is possible that security (anti-virus) software is causing problems with downloading files by Firefox and prevents Firefox from moving the file from the %temp% folder to the destination folder. Try to disable scanning files in real-time in security (anti-virus) software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.
