download status bar help
After the last update, every time i download something the download display pops open and shows all of my downloads. This used to only happen when i actually clicked on it, not every time i downloaded something. It's annoying to have to either close it after every download or have it take up a good part of the screen. how do i stop this from happening?
To clarify, the download library window doesn't open, just that menu that drops down when you click the download button.

In Firefox 97 and 98+ there have been changes to the download panel.

You can set this pref to false on the about:config page to prevent opening the download panel on each download.
- browser.download.alwaysOpenPanel = false
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
