I am facing issue while downloading files in Firefox Private Browsing. Whenever I download my PDF files, as soon as I close the browser window, the files also get deleted automatically. What should I do to rectify this issue.

This should only be about removing the file from the download history as in PB mode session data isn't kept, the dowmnloaded files should still be in the location where you saved them.

If the PDF is opened rather than saved, the downloaded file is considered temporary and will be deleted at the end of the private session. You need to manually save the PDF for it to be preserved.
