Firefox doesn't save anything i download. It shows the screen with the progress, but after it's done downloading it doesn't show up anywhere, even if i right click in the download screen, it doesn't let me open it.

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"
