All of a sudden Firefox won't download files at all. I've gone through all the fixes I can find and nothing is working! I have to open up Chrome to download anything. I've checked the add-ons and extensions. I've tried creating a new profile.... starting in Safe Mode..... refreshing it..... clearing the downloads...... resetting the download folder....... renamed the handlers.json file...... I don't know what else to try. I love Firefox but I need this fixed or I'll have to go back to Chrome :(

Just from the read no one will be able to know where or what site you were at to be able to reproduce the problem?
