Hey guys
Today I got so annyed by firefox’s default behaviour of downloading each and every PDF file to my disk that I went searching for a solution until I had the problem fixed. And it seems like I have finally found it. I have linked the solution but here is the fix in short:
- go to about:config
- change browser.download.open_pdf_attachments_inline to true
Thank you jscher2000 for the solution!

I know but I don’t want it to be shown in the downloads panel or get any notification I just want it to store it temporarily in the browser cache and ooen it in a new tab. Like a regular website. And if I really want to download something it should go directly to my regular download folder.
I’m pretty sure all browsers do this. Edge just hides the temp folder somewhere obscure I think. I could be wrong so feel free to do your own research but I think this is normal browser behavior. Only difference is in Firefox you just choose your own location.
