I download pictures frequently and have noticed an issue with Firefox. It appears that Firefox is accessing my files and replacing random pictures I had previously organized in my Pictures folder. Even though I declined the permission for Firefox to access my pictures, it somehow still reads my files and replacing them it likes to. How can I stop this behavior? It doesn’t happen with other browsers.
There is an easy way to replicate this issue on the Firefox release, beta, and nightly versions:
1. Download a picture.
2. Move the picture to any folder within the Pictures folder.
3. Redownload the same picture again.
4. Click "Open" directly and open in Google Photos.
5. Click the three dots in the top-right corner to confirm the file's location.
You will see that Firefox knows the new file location and opens it from there. This indicates that Firefox is accessing file information directly because the "Open" function wouldn’t work if a third-party app was responsible for managing it.
