These downloads were started with the help of an add-on 'download helper'. Disabling this add-on does not help. Start Firefox. Downloads start! Download button and "show all downloads" don't show any downloads though they continue and are being saved in the specified directory. How to cancel such downloads.

Hello,

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.

  • Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.

To Reset Firefox do the following:

  1. Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
  2. Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
  3. Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
  4. Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Thank you.

You should try to disable some youtube addons, or reset firefox (as said above).
