I would Firefox to still ask me whether to download a file or open it directly

Usually Firefox prompts when I open a file online, it asks whether or not to download or open it directly. I accidentally click something on that prompt so it no longer asks the question and just assumes that I would like to download. I like Firefox to be able to prompt the options. Thank you.
