Effortlessly Bypass Forced Downloads in Firefox
Bypass Forced Download is a Firefox add-on designed to enhance user experience by preventing unwanted file downloads. This utility targets websites that enforce file downloads through specific headers, allowing Firefox to display files directly instead. By rewriting the Content-Disposition header, it ensures that files are opened in the browser instead of being automatically downloaded. Users can still save files manually through standard right-click options or the Firefox menu, maintaining flexibility in file handling.
The add-on also offers customization features, enabling users to selectively disable its functionalities on certain sites through the settings in the add-on manager. Users can create whitelists or blacklists using simple patterns to control where the add-on is active. The default settings allow for bypassing forced downloads universally while excluding specific hosts known for mandatory downloads, such as media sharing websites. This ensures that users can enjoy a seamless browsing experience without unnecessary interruptions.
