downloads
How do I change my settings so that I'm asked if I want to save a file or just read it? Whenever I need to open a file to read it Mozilla automatically saves it to my downloads folder.

Hello,
Check your settings in:
- Tools (or
) > Options > General
Thanks for your answer. Unless I'm missing something that only lets me decide where to download files. I want an option to decided IF I want to save something. For example, some websites have .pdf files that I simply want to open and read but don't necessarily want to save them anywhere. Thanks.
You can change your options for file types in the Applications tab of the same window:
- Tools (or ) > Options > Applications
Scroll to PDF, or whichever content type you want to modify, and change the default setting to "Always Ask"
