Firefox: Restore old Download Window
by admin on Aug.23, 2013, under Random()
If you recently updated your Firefox and noticed the download window has changed, you might be interested in a way of restoring the old Firefox download manager window.
Note: As of Firefox 26, this no longer works because they removed the appropriate configuration entry. You can get a similar download window, though, by installing the following extension, the downloads window: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/downloads-window/
This can be done by navigating to:
about:config
And searching for:
browser.download.useToolkitUI
Double click on the search result in order to set its value to true. The changes apply instantly (no browser restart is required).

After:
As you’ll notice, the download UI will change instantly. If you open the download manager with CTRL+J you’ll notice the difference.
