Hi Folks,
When I download using FF, this appears then closes when all downloads are completed.

This is nearly how I want it to work. In recent versions, I was able to have the items downloaded cleared automatically, now it has to be done manually. Any ideas on how to do it ?

You could try this.
Check in about:config whether this setting is 0 (zero). browser.download.manager.retention If it is not, set it to 0.

i prefer to keep my downloads list as when occasionally i cant find a download i can right click the file and select " open containing folder"
also i can install a software by double clicking the exe in the download manager.
i occasionally remove the list when i use ccleaner.
i find the download manager a really useful tool.

Normally, when programs get an update, I disable my Outpost FW Pro as it tends to block access to certain files, causing things to go wrong. I had lost the up/down scroll bar on my Desktop pc and thought I had failed to disable Outpost FW, so gave it a clean install, it didn't help but its now fixed.

Everything on my Laptop works as it should without having to make changes.

My downloads are saved to desktop, right below the recycle bin. When I've finished with them, I either save them to an external hdd or bin them.

i usually save them directly to the folder location ,if its a pic it goes in the pics folder ,music ,mussic folder and so on,
occasionally they get misplaced so i can find them easily via the manager,
each to their own i guess.
