Private Browsing doesn't work and doesn't ask where to save files for download.

Hi.

For a couple of days, I have been observing that browsing in incognito mode does not work correctly. I explain, when selecting "new incognita window", if I open a new tab in that window, that window stops being incognita. In turn, if in that incognito window, when I visit a website, it also stops being incognito. I have history set to always browse private but it still doesn't work.

Another issue I'm experiencing is that it doesn't ask me to save the files, it directly downloads them to the "downloads" folder and shows them in the browser, despite having the settings to always ask me.

Thanks.

I'm using firefox version 105.0.3 (64-bit).

Hola, Este es el foro de ayuda en español. Al configurar Preferencias > Privacidad y seguridad > Historial: "Usar configuración personalizada.." y "Usar siempre el modo de navegación privada" el Firefox funcionara siempre en modo privado, el icono de modo privado no aparecera: https://support.mozilla.org/es/kb/navegacion-privada-Firefox-no-guardar-historial-navegacion#w_puedo-configurar-firefox-para-que-siempre-utilice-la-navegacion-privada

"Siempre preguntarme dónde guardar archivos" no impide que diferentes tipos de archivos se puedan vizualizar en el Firefox según esta configurado en aplicaciones.

Saludos
