"Save all files to this folder" doesn't work?

Post by anand »

I've noticed some problems when trying to use the "Save all files to this folder" option.

Here's what I've tried:
1. Set folder to "D:\Downloads"
2. Try to download a file, pops up a "Save As" dialog with "D:\Downloads" as the initial folder
3. Change save as folder to D:\Temp
4. Try to download another file
5. This time, the "Save As" dialog shows D:\Temp instead of D:\Downloads
6. If I go back to the options, my "save all files to this folder" has been changed to D:\Temp.

Anyone else notice this problem? I tried searching the forums but couldn't find anything. This issue kinda defeats the whole purpose of the "save all files to this folder."

I've been having this problem with Px since the November 5th, 2002 build.
Every build that I used (40 or 50 different ones) has had this problem.
The 'hard' setting in user.js has no influence on this behaviour.

I did a search and did not see a bug for this, so I opened one:
