Download Manager stops when I turn off Firefox

I have tried twice now; It didn't used to be like that. I have a current download. When I disable the Firefox, the download ends, too. My version is Firefox 24. How can I keep the download? Thanks for your help.

The default is to pause a download and resume the download automatically the next time.

You can set the pref browser.download.manager.quitBehavior to 2 on the topic: config page.

That will make Firefox asks for confirmation if you want to cancel the download when you close Firefox.
