In version 54.0, Netmonitor's Save All as HAR command no longer brings up a Save As window. This means I have no control over where the file is saved, or what name the file is saved as. Instead an Open Archive window is opened, whereby which I can open the archive with an app (which I don't want to do), or save the file with a default name in my Downloads directory (which I don't want to do either).

This issue has been resolved by reverting to version 53, a decision that was spurred by other issues, including performance problems with version 54.

Are you using the 'always ask' setting for saving a download?

I've never considered the saving of a HAR from the Netmonitor to be a Download. It's never been a Download before, and this change appears to be an undocumented side effect of version 54.

But to answer your question, No, downloads are saved in my Downloads directory (which is where I automatically want everything except the HAR files saved from the Netmonitor).
