On the page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/manage-downloads-preferences-using-downloads-menu#w_downloads-panel-automatically-opens it says: "Downloads panel automatically opens" "Every time you start a download, Firefox will automatically bring up the Downloads panel by default, . . . "

It never used to do that ! Having the Downloads panel drop down and just sit there covering a large part of the page every time I save a little picture is an extreme nuisance ! How do I prevent it from happening ? Please help ! Many thanks !

Hello bannerman100,

You can type "about:config" into the address bar, click "Accept the Risk and Continue", and type "browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel".

In your case, it is most likely set to "true", so click the swap icon button to change it to "false". This should prevent the Downloads panel from dropping down when you are downloading a file.

Hopefully this helps and if it does, kindly mark this answer as the solution (solved)!

Hi YongHan, Sorry for the delay in responding, I was down with covid for a while, so doing very little.

Yes, your fix works, so I offer magnificent and wonderful large size thanks !

Do I then need to do anything other than just close that tab ?

All the best to you, Frank.

Hello bannerman100,

You can close the "about:config" (Advanced Preferences) tab with no issues. Hope you are recovering well!
