Hi, I am running 64-bit firefox 90.0.2 on windows 10. Every time i launch it, it opens a dialog box on the right side that says Opening firefox.exe You have chosen to open: firefox.exe Would you like to save this file? Save File or Cancel are the only 2 options

How do I get rid of this dialog box and open firefox normally?

Thank you!!
