When you click on a download link the firefox browser gives you options:
open with ____
Save to HD
glashGot
lately, the "open with ____ " option vanished off that download pop-up, and i really want to replace it. I've looked everywhere but i cannot find the settings to change/configure that window.
Thanks for any kind of support.

Tools > Options > Main > Downloads
and check Always ask me where to save files.
Maybe that's it?

Try highlighting it then right click on it. That might work also?

@Xenion
uhm, well, that only toggles between where to save it and the default(being the desktop). It's odd, because it should be in that tab somewhere with the location setting.
@PoisonDart
right clicking what exactly? when i click on a download link, or in that same page in settings? I tried it in a few odd places, but never with any results.
I noticed when i to hit a dl link and that small window appears, if i toggle the "always do this action for this type of file", there's a little mssg that says to go to tools -> Options -> content tab to change make changes, but it does't contain the feild that i'm looking for....
Anyone else?

Maybe you should try Tools > Options > Content > File Types > Manage. If a certain file type you want to have the "open with" is in there click "Remove Action" while it is selected.
See how that works, and lemme know!

Maybe when you download it, you need to select an action, (random action) then go in there and change it ?

I think he meant actually download it, and click OK, then go in and change the action.
