Firefox 29.0.1 cannot view the download in course, nor access via browser downloads

I am running Firefox 29.0.1 in a Windows operating system. Until a few days ago, the grey arrow (green when downloading) has worked, place a menu that showed the recent downloads and allowed me to access it. Now I find that I can't do this. I would prefer to use the native button 'Download', but am open to suggestions, if this is not possible.

You can check the problems caused by a corrupt localstore.rdf file.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe

  • How to view the downloads window in Mac 34.0.5

    I just updated my Mac to 34.0.5 Firefox. In the previous version, I had used about: config for the browser.download.useToolkitUI set to true so that the old downloads window always out during downloads. Now, I find that setting is apparently is no longer respected? I tried setting it false, reboot, set to true, restart again. And the only answer to a download is still the annoying arrow right goes blue.

    Is there a way to get the downloads window to get out in this new version?

    This pref has been supported only for some versions of Firefox, and has no effect in current versions, so you can reset the pref to remove it in about: config on the next departure.

    You will need to find an extension if you want a download manager which work differently then the version currently used.

  • Cannot restore the downloads folder to the original location

    Dear community,

    I have a new computer Windows 8.

    The hard drive is split into two, OS (C :) and DATA (d) and I realized that all my files were stored in the C: drive)

    I read online that you can change the location of folders like "My documents" by clicking on properties and change the location to the other disk.

    I did it for the Documents folders and everything was fine, I had a Documents folder in my D: drive.

    Then I did the same with my downloads folder and selected the location D:\

    After that, I realized that my D: drive and file downloads completely merged!

    Which means, when I went to my DATA (d :)) I could find all my downloads and My Documents folder.

    Still, when I was clicking on Downloads, My Documents folder was inside!

    So I clicked on downloads and tried to restore the default location, but I got the error message that it was impossible to "create sublists under D: System Volume Information. Access Denied» I tried to introduce the location manually, but the same thing happened.

    Now, my downloads folder has changed its name, it is called D:\ and my disk DATA (d :)) says in the location tab its default location is C:/users/downloads)

    I don't understand why this happened and that cannot be good for the functioning of my PC...

    Can I restore my system to just before that happened even if I never 'saved' my computer?

    If not, what can I do to fix this?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hello

    I only did this for awhile and can't find my notes...

    I think that you can get the error because you are trying to get the DOWNLOADS folder... AND it's the content... This will not work because they are now scattered on D:\.

    If asked about the files, select NO, and then copy back them manually after you move downloads.

    OR... you could leave it here just temporarily, return downloads, create a folder for downloads on D: and then move again into the folder you have created. Then, cut and paste your files into it...
