Firefox 20.0.1 on WinXP SP3.

Previously, when I selected "Always ask where to save files" Firefox would start from the default Downloads folder - there I had shortcuts to the locations that I usually save to.

Now Firefox insists on starting from the root of C: - and I don't know how to change this behavior.

I'd want it to start from the default Download folder as it used to. It is the location where I had these shortcuts and I do NOT wish to place these shortcuts in the root of C: .

Sorry. Does not fix the problem.

It keeps on insisting to save to C: even if I set the download folder to D: .
