With the help of the download manager, keep track of your current and past downloads. To open the download manager, click ‘Tools’+‘Downloads’. Firefox opens a window with your downloads. While downloading a file, see a progress bar and the current file. Pause the download and resume it later, if necessary. To open a downloaded file, click ‘Open’. With ‘Remove’, erase it from the medium. If you need information about the file, right-click the filename and choose ‘Properties’.

If you need further control of the Download Manager, open the configuration window from ‘Edit’+‘Preferences’ and go to the ‘Downloads’ tab. Here, determine the download folder, how the manager behaves, and some configuration of file types.
