I would change my download directory, but the option is grayed out. Can I fix this?

I have no trouble to change the download directory in other browsers on my computer, e.g. Safari. I've attached a screenshot of my Firefox preferences's general tab. I just noticed in the "Troubleshooting Information" attached to this question page that includes "lockedPreferences" "browser.download.useDownloadDir": false...» Rather than emphasize that it is the problem (if it does), please help me to understand why it is like that and how to change.

Check if there is a present mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox application to initialize some prefs.

It is also the presence of a .js (JScript) file, probably in the folder "by default/pref', which specifies to process this mozilla.cfg file.

If there is .js files apart from the file prefs.js - channel, which affects app.update.channel, in the default/pref folder, then open this file in an editor such as Notepad (Mac: TextEdit) and please publish his content.
Also, please post the contents of the mozilla.cfg file.

It should not be a mozilla.fcg file that is located in the main Firefox folder unless you have created yourself to initialize some prefs.

If you have this mozilla.cfg file so the best is to do a clean reinstall, and move the Firefox application folder to the trash before reinstalling a new copy of Firefox.

You can find the full version of the current version of Firefox (40.0.3) in all languages and all systems operating here:

  • I keep trying to change my cookies setting, but as soon as I close out, he return to the previous settings. How can I fix this so that making the changes will stay?

    I followed the instructions to change my settings of cookies, but whenever I click on OK and close out he returns to previous setting recall the story. How can I fix this so that the parameters iI choose will stay?

    That's ok.

    Firefox shows that the 'use the settings customized for history' if at least a history and cookie setting is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.

    If all the history settings are the defaults, the custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."

    "Never remember history" means that private browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" Gets a check mark.

    The default cookie settings mean that all cookies are enabled.

    Have you checked exceptions to make sure you aren't blocking cookies?

  • How can I import from Outlook 2007 when the option is grayed out?

    I'm moving from Outlook 2007 to Thunderbird. All is well until now, but I need to import my old mails from Outlook. When I go to tools > import > Mail I get options for Eudora, Outlook, and Outlook Express. Eudora and Outlook options are grayed out. The option for Outlook Express is available, but who isn't even an option for me, since I am on Windows 7.

    I've read a few articles, and they point out that you must always have Outlook installed and configured as the default e-mail client. I made sure Outlook is set as the default mail client, but the import option is still grayed out. I tried restarting both Outlook and Thunderbird. I also tried the import with Outlook open and closed.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You must Version31 or an earlier version. Something happened along the way with exit 38 and transformed into an accident. It is therefore turned off until it gets.

    Which language version would you need?

  • Logged on as administrator on Vista, but some options are grayed out or do not have permission

    I'm the only user configured on my computer, when I check the settings, he told me that I have administrator privileges.  However, when I try to do various things, several options are grayed out or the system tells me that I can't do some operations.  I want to select the option "run as Administrator" with some programs, but it is grayed out.  I try to rename files on an external hard drive, but will not let me.  Currently, only one user configured on the computer.  Thank you.

    Your request to user accounts in control Panel displays a check box for "turn User Account Control on or off" you need to turn it on for the admin functions. (You may need to turn off , then reboot the system then on and restart again to fix it)

    Turn on UAC

    Use the following procedure to enable UAC.

    To perform the following procedure, you must be able to connect with or provide the credentials of a member of the local Administrators group.

    Determine my administrative settings:

  • Why I can not encrypt files, the option is grayed out?

    I'm trying to encrypt a folder and I right click on the folder, then I click on properties, then I click on advanced, but the option encrypt is obscured and I can't click on it. Why is this and how can I solve this problem?

  • How can I unlock folder when applying the option is grayed out?

    I used an HDMI cable to connect my computer to the TV.  My screen went black.  I finally got my computer back screen, but some got locked folders.  I dropped the idea of linking my TV and computer because the TV is old and I don't want two monitors.

    I just read on unlocking using properties files and the tab share.  My Documents folder contains the my music (unlocked) folder and a folder my music locked (locked).  The same thing with my pictures, and my videos.  I discovered this when I tried to open an image in Paint and got this error message.  "The location is not available."

    When I tried to unlock folder my pictures, in properties, Security tab, to apply option is grayed out.  I also tried the sharing tab and it was also disabled.  I don't know much about the records and did not know that my music, my pictures, and my videos were located in the My Documents folder, but perhaps noticed them there before.  I often forget things.

    I really regret trying to connect my computer and TV; my computer screen is very nice to watch movies.  I just bought the TV rabbit and became obsessed by the idea.  It was a bad idea because my TV was not made for her.

    Other that the appearance of an icon of padlock on certain issues, you actually have problems to access the files?

    As far as I KNOW, the lock on the Folders icon has nothing to do with the use of an HDMI cable, but the way in which the folder is shared (or possibly who 'owns' the folder).  I've seen several explanations and methods to remove the icon of the lock, but unless it's really you cause problems, I suggest doing nothing.

    These may (or may not) be useful:

  • Volume icon disappeared from my system tray, and the option is grayed out (don't let me check it out) in the taskbar and start menu properties screen /Notification

    I don't know how to recover my volume icon - can anyone help?  Thank you!

    Hello

    If one of the system icons is out, you can reactivate the as follows:

    Right-click on the taskbar and select Properties. This will bring up the tab "properties of menu taskbar and start. It's where you mentioned, it is gray. It is very well...  From there, you can click on Customize button in the icon section. Look for the icon that you are missing, and check the status. The type of report should read "Hide icon and notifications", change that to "Show icon and notifications".

    If this does not resolve the issue most likely you have a problem with group policy on your machine. This can be corrected by following the instructions on the following link:
