Firefox ver 77.0.1 Windows 7 64-bit

Hi. Ever since I've updated to the current latest version (77.0.1 64bit) the firefox icon on the Windows taskbar no longer shows the progress of any current downloads. It used to, prior to the update. Now it no longer does. I am wondering how I can get this back? See attached for example. Searching online for answers about this has only shown questions and answers regarding the download icon within firefox which has a bar which shows current progress of downloads. However, I am talking about the Window's taskbar icon. This feature still works for other internet browsers such as Opera.

Thanks for your time.

There used to be an add-on that did this pre-Quantum. I don't know if there is another.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
