When trying to download firefox from safari, the message "no such file or directory" keeps appearing. I've tried https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

After downloading firefox 61.0 (for mac) on either Chrome or Safari, the same message "no such file or directory" keeps appearing. I've tried https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/ and the same thing happens. The download goes to my download folder, which I've had no problems before (and also cleared recently). I tried downloading the file to my desktop, and the same "no such file or directory" appears.

I assume you are getting that message after clicking the downloaded file from without the browser (like how Chrome has it along the bottom). Is the Firefox installer not showing up in the download location at all?
