How can I disable each site remembering the download directory?

This is similar to a post I did a few days ago. Reposting because I don't have all the answers to this post, most likely due to my having accidentally marked one of the responses as 'useful' before checking to make sure that if he solved the problem.

I was told that Firefox 11 would have a pref for deactivation by remembering the download directory site. I now have 11 of Firefox, but unfortunately, turn off this "feature" that many users hate and considered a bug is not as easy checking or unchecking a checkbox in the Options of Firefox as it should be.

COR - el said "the browser.download.lastdir.savePerSite pref does not exist by default (it's hidden).»
Create a new Boolean pref with the name browser.download.lastdir.savePerSite and set it to false. "

I did and it has no effect. each site remembering the download directory was not disabled. I tried my recent history without tab open with the exception of a new empty tab of compensation. In the drop-down menu, I selected all and in the boxes, I chose the browsing & download history, form & search, Cookies and Cache. That had no effect.

Is there anything else I can try?

Also, is it possible that the developers of FireFox will add disabling by site remembering directories to download option in the Options instead whether a hidden feature? Given the number of users do not like to remember, I think that's what they're doing by site.

I encourage anyone who reads this please go to
https://input.Mozilla.com/en-us/feedback
and submit a suggestion to disable remembering directories to download option in the Options rather than be a feature hidden by site

I was told to try the announcement to the bug report area. Who found a solution. I was told

I'm 99% sure that the problem is that you have created the preference

 browser.download.lastdir.savePerSite,

as opposed to

 browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite

(in tiny "d" instead of the capital "D" in lastDir)

So I recreated the preference to capital D and that disable each site remembering the download directory

  • How can I disable doucuemnt expired at the time when firefox blocks the site safe before I go crazy

    Firefox keeps block back to a search in free Reg (parish registers) page I have a first pass first the list of the results of research, but after opening for more details I get Document expired for my own safety and the document has not been saved in the cache very annoying. How can I urn it off please.

    Each Web page that will not be cached (for whatever reason) has a statement "no cache" in the HTML Web page code - Firefox follows this "statement".

    Two ways to not see that message "expired document.
    1. do not use the "Back" button But rather to use the context menu for this button and select the "previous page" by yourself.
    2. do not open a result of research in the same tab, open in a new tab instead. When you are finished, close this tab. The "search results" page / tab will show unchanged - and no 'document has expired.

  • How can I disable "SATA" option in the BIOS PHOENIX Satellite M70

    My laptop is toshiba satellite M70
    He has PHOENIX bios
    is there any FLASH ACPI for this Bios for me to set the property as DISABLED SATA?
    OR I can DISABLE this property is the current BIOS?
    Thank you very much...

    Satellite M70 does not support this feature in the BIOS!
    This means that you will not be able to disable the SATA feature!

    As Akuma, you need to install the SATA driver first.
    You can do this by using the USB external floppy drive or you will create the new CD of Win XP and will include the SATA driver using the free tool called nLite.

    So if you don t have an external USB FDD drive, you can use nLite.

    Search here in the forum for nLite and how to include the SATA drivers.
    There are a lot of announcement about this procedure.

    Good bye

    By administrator, do you mean the user access control?  If so, I strongly recommend that you don't do that despite the indonvenience because it is an important element of the security of your system.

    But if you're going to do it anyway, here's the procedure; http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-the-easy-way-on-windows-vista/.

  • How can I disable a default amazon mp3 downloader?

    I tried to download a MP3 of Amazon and stupidly installed Amazon MP3 Downloader. I can't seem to get rid of it, or remove automatic default for MP3 downloads from the firefox options (applications). Files won't download properly with Amazon Downloader although they (via another computer) will download very well if Amazon Downloader is not installed. I'm not very technical interested so I'm just going along in circles. What is a plug-in and how to remove it (if that's the problem)?

    Thank you. I tried that and it seemed to uninstall. Unfortunately, when I went back to retry the download, it still gave me the same default option. In the early hours of this morning, I discovered the plug-ins and how to disable them. That does the trick! Hurrah!
