How do I make Firefox automatically download and install files?

When I download an exe file from the internet, it goes over to the download window. I can see it downloading but I always have to right click and and select open to get it to install. How do I get it to always install automatically? There is never any option called "Download this type of file all the time".

I've been trying to figure this out for days.

  • How to prevent automatic download and install of Reader 8.1.2

    Hi-
    I have Adobe Reader 7.0.9 and I need to keep it as my default Adobe reader program and plug-in for some applications that I use.
    Over the last week, Adobe reader 8.1.2 downloads automatically and installs itself in my business laptop (Win XP SP2) and replaces my 7.0.9 version.
    Each time I uninstall the 8.1.2 and reinstall the 7.0.9. I ensure the option of automatic download and install is disabled in 7.0.9.
    But it still happens I have for the xth time today the new 8.1.2 in my laptop.
    Anybody knows what is going on ? And how can I solve this issue to keep my 7.0.9 version ?
    Thanks.

    That's *not* a good thing to hear.
    After the download finishes, do NOT press the Install Now button. Try the following to remove the download from the device. Here's the procedure I came up with last time this happened with iOS 7...It may or may not work.
    Re: Apple Forced iOS7 update on my iPad2 !
    Afterwards if you succeed, block Apple's update server using the following method so it wont get pushed to the device again:
    In your router's settings, set up a block (using Access Restrictions or similar in the router's web interface) to mesu.apple.com. This will prevent the devices from "phoning home" to Apple, checking for the update and getting the download pushed to it again.
    Or follow the instructions at this link:

    How do I change platform for downloading and installing Photoshop Elements from Windows to Mac?

    As long as your license supports both platforms you should only have to download the Mac version and install/activate using your serial number.  If you need help finding a link to download the file, please indicate the PSE version you need.

  • How can I get itunes to download and install?

    How can I get itunes to download and install?

    You need to install it - just downloading does not necessarily install it. If you double click it, does it open an installer window? Or, can you simply drag it into your Applications folder (if it is not showing in Launchpad)?
    FWIW, your downloads folder is just a temporary "holding" place for your downloads - once you have installed applications or moved other files where they belong, you can empty that folder.
    PS - If this is what you downloaded, it is a disk image (.dmg) which means you need to double click it; you then need to move the icon and install it.
    Out of curiosity: is it working well? I'm curious because it is rather dated software.

  • How long does it take to download and install Yosemite?

    How long does it take to download and install Yosemite?

    That is going to depend on the speed of your Internet connection as well as your machine. It took about an hour to install on my mid 2011 iMac if I recall. I started it and walked away, stopping in to check on it a few times throughout the evening.  That doesn't include the time it takes to download the ~5GB installer.

    How long does it take to download and install maverick, not got high speed connection

    It always depends on your network.
    Can always go to http://www.speedtest.net and it will let you know your download speed and can do the math.
    It will take about 2 hours on a good network though.

  • How long will it take to download and install this OS?

    I want to update my Mac OS to the Lion OS; I just paid for it. how long would it take to download and start the istallation process through a wifi connection? I see the lion and the downloading bar however, it does not seen to be advancing. thanks,

    Your time depends on how busy the Apple servers are and your ISP's download speed. For me it takes ~1 hour to download then ~ 30mins to install.

  • Automatic download and install of app updates

    Is there a way of setting iTunes to download and install updates to existing apps. At the moment, if I am travelling, I come back and there are 20 or 30 apps to update

    I'm sorry, but you can't install updates automatically. You have to open iTunes and install these updates manually, and there isn't a workaround for this

  • How was replacement SSD able to download and install Mavericks?

    This has puzzled me for 2 years.
    A friend bought a new Mac mini and bravely (!!!!) replaced the hard drive with a third party SSD.
    He told me that the moment he switched the mini on it connected with the App Store and downloaded and installed Mavericks.
    How could it do this when it had no operating system whatsoever and no recovery partition, as these had presumably disappeared along with the original hard drive?

    Hello!
    His Mac Mini had an Internet Recovery Partition
    It's explained here:
    OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support
    if your startup drive encounters an issue, or if your startup drive has been replaced or erased. Internet Recovery lets you start your Mac directly from Apple's servers.
