I get my bills etc electronically. I then download them and save them to a file on my computer. Firefox is now opening them in a window that has only the PDF and an address bar, the "File Edit View, etc" at the top of the screen is missing and I can't figure out how to save these files.

Hi rjwwalker3-

It is possible to adjust your preferences for files, and what Firefox does with them. Here is an article on how to adjust your preferences when dealing with files:

Hope that helps!
