Hi, when I right click on an image to save image as from the firefox browser, the dialogue box opens with the file name written but file type is blank and when i click on it it show one option all files. It was showing before many choices like (JPEG, PNG, GIF, etc...). I guess this happened after I did a system restore to my desktop to its factory settings. So i can't choose which type to save the image in. I checked all the previous articles regarding this issue and did some solutions like clearing the Temporary Internet Files all didn't work out.

System Information: windows 7 (64-Bit), Firefox 15.0.

Desktop: XPS 8300.

Any kind of help is really appreciated. Thank You.

Try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder to reset all file actions.

You can also try to clear the Cache.
