Solve : Firefox built-in download manager? |

Answer» Hi You can disable the download manager by going intoCheck what box? It only shows what you have down loaded that's on FFQuote from: ganjaman on December 17, 2009, 12:57:21 PM Check what box? It only shows what you have down loaded that's on FF Tools->OPTIONS and then there are options for downloads in the "Main" Tab. NOT Tools->Downloads. Tools->Options. Thanks for the speedy reply Patio and apologies for my late response. Quote from: patio on December 16, 2009, 07:48:01 AM Unfortunately, as Ganjaman rightly pointed out, the above steps only disable the FF download page whereas what I'm after is disabling or uninstalling the actual download manager built into FF. I have an alternative download manager - FDM - which I want to USE for all my downloads, but haven't had any luck in either FF's or FDM's options that will enable me to do that. FDM works fine in IE8 whereas FF insists on using its own download manager. Any ideas? Thanks Doesn't FDM just open as soon as you click a link? When I had it installed, Firefox's DM just never opened......Nope, kpac! In fact, with me it's the other way round! FF DM WANTS to do it all!Okay.....I did a bit of digging and didn't find a whole lot. You can try these, but I don't know if they'll do what you want. Download Manager Tweak - Firefox Addon Tweaks for Firefox 3 download managerThanks for the links,kpac!I'd have to agree with you,however,in that neither really helps with the INITIAL enquiry. FF is a great browser but,for some reason,insists on our using its own in-built DM! Again, I thank for your assistance and would welcome any additional forum contributions and suggestions. Thanks Well I hope someone else can HELP, but it's unlikely unfortunately! |
