Shows you don't know what you are talking about (sorry if it
sounds
offensive, but not any more than your statement is the other way
round,
think about that). The Download Manager is used by almost
everybody,
including developers, of course.
Oh, and I was under the impression that this pref is set to
true by
default, but I might be wrong, like every so often.

Its set to false for me as well. I'm quite sure I did nothing to
reset
it, something to look into.

I'm pretty sure that when I installed 2.0 the Pref for what to
do with
Downloads were defaulted to not being set to anything...but I
generally
go into the Prefs and check/reset mine in total anytime I
install any
software - so I never had an issue, as I simply set mine to "open a
progress dialog" after install.
...the buttons in the new 2.0 Progress Dialog suck...way too small.
They REALLY suck on a laptop if you're trying to use a touch pad.
Download manager does come up regardless of what you set. You
have to
manually open Download Manager. in 1.1.18 and below if something was
started to download the Download Manager would come to the Front
if you
had to show Download Manager in preferences.
Should be: in SM2 Download Manager does *not* come up regardless
of what
is set. It has to be manually opened.
IN SM 1.1.18 if _Preference_> _Download_ was set to *open*
_Download_
_Manager_ then as soon as a download began it popped to the front.
...well...yeah...
What was mean by my comment is that the preference to make download
Manager open as soon as a download starts is broken in SM2.
the proper operation is as SM 1.1.18 does it.
I thought that wasn't a default in 1.1.18 either? - i.e.; if you do a
fresh install, you get nothing until you set the Pref for what you want
to do for Downloads.
My thought was/is that the pref wasn't properly set/transferred for the
OP from previous after his upgrade - pretty sure mine wasn't either, but
as stated I always go back and double check pref settings after an
upgrade so on initial usage I didn't have an issue...but I may have
prevented that myself.
True. But when you set for download manager to open in SM 1.1.18 it
opens Download Manager once set.
ON SM regardless of what is set. the Download Manager doesn't open on
it own. You have to open it. The auto open for download Manager is
broken.
I have to disagree, when I click on a file to download the download
manager pops up and I have not messed with the preferences.
I haven't either. never has come up for me. (Mac OSX.4.11) tried one
other item in about;config made no difference. I just found the problem
this line in about:config was set
*userset* *browser*.*download*.*manager*.*showWhenStarting*;*False*
should be:
default browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting;true
