recent update

The main update of the official version of Firefox v98,
Instead of asking for the user's consent, the new logic reduces the interruption of the process caused by manual intervention, making downloading files easier. If you don't like automatic downloads, the Firefox browser lets you switch back to the old setting and let the browser ask you what to do with each file you want to save. Settings are file type specific, which means you can set Firefox to ask for confirmation when downloading, for example, to only download executable files. Some users may change the default search engine after installing the latest version, but the missing search engine can be restored in the settings.
