How to Make Firefox Automatically Run a Download
Firefox, a Web browser developed by Mozilla, serves as an alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Apple's Safari browsers. It comes with a variety of features, including the ability to customize its functionality and appearance. By default, Firefox cannot run downloads automatically; you have to confirm downloads and choose where to save them. You can, however, customize Firefox to automatically start running a download without prompting you where to save the file every time.
