"Save Image As" does not appear on the right click menu of an image I want to save.
Trying to save images as a file to my desktop/laptop. I right click on the image and the menu appears. The entry Save Image As... is not present on the menu. How do I get the menu to show this entry?
I've heard that the problem may have something to do with plug-ins, but I've reinstalled and disabled each of them. It didn't change anything.

Does that happen with all images or only on specific web pages?
Can you post a link if the later applies?
Can you save the images via Tools > Page Info > Media ?
To be sure:
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
- Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
- Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
- Use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window to disable all extensions.
- Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
You can also try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the Safe mode start window.
Thank you for the prompt assistance! Very much appreciated.
I believe I've been through all of the steps of Safe Mode and and resetting plugins and resetting preferences. All to no avail.
The problem occurs anytime I try to save an image. The place I try to do it most often is in an individual eBay auction, where I open a child window within the parent window.
For example, I'll open: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170566594248&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Within that I open the image of the auction lot by clicking the image. This opens the child window. It is a chrome-less window, so there's not much to manipulate. From the above window, I open: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?VISuperSize&item=170566594248 (See attached screen shot.)
Right click, and there is no Save Image as... option. That's the problem I'm trying to fix.
Again, thanks for your help.
