This is driving me crazy ... Firefox ALWAYS downloads PDF files to my Downloads, and I do not want this at all. Settings are set to "Always ask" but this gets simply ignored. Please, is there somebody which a solution which actually works? All the suggestions I have seen correspond to the setting I already have. Thank you.

The outdated information you may have seen posted by Dropa mentioning the browser.download.improvements_to_download_panel Preference will NOT work as it was for Fx 98.0 to 101.0. The Preference for Fx 102.0 to current is browser.download.start_downloads_in_tmp_dir

Please be careful with all about:config changes. Please read Firefox Advanced Customization and Configuration Options and Configuration Editor for Firefox to learn more.
