Download Manager (S3)von Oleksandr

Since version 5.1, Download Manager (S3) is now fully compatible with WebExtensions (Firefox Quantum 57+) and Google Chrome
the latest XUL version for older versions of Firefox, SeaMonkey and PaleMoon is here:

Original Download Statusbar add-on for Mozilla Firefox is abandoned October 28, 2011:

Does it mean its death? Of course not! It has been reborn! I brought it back to life!
Now it is called Download Manager (S3) and works with all Firefox versions 26+

Completely rewritten code to be compatible with the latest versions of firefox, but visual interface unchanged for use as a familiar old Download Statusbar

WebExtensions Limitations:
1. Download Bar not displayed on some sites from mozilla.org and google.com
2. Download Bar not displayed on sites that do not have pages, for example error 404 (page not found)
3. Download Bar not displayed on internal Firefox and GoogleChrome pages, for example about:addons , about:config , chrome://extensions/ , chrome://settings/ , etc.
4. Download Bar not displayed on the extensions pages "moz-extension://...." , "chrome-extension://...."

For display and normal work on the pages of addons.mozilla.org, only for Firefox Quantum 57+
1. in the address bar: about:config
2. right-click to create a logical
3. setting name: privacy.resistFingerprinting.block_mozAddonManager
4. value: true

Mozilla changed the functionality in Firefox 60. Firefox 60 comes with a new preference called extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains which lists domains that WebExtensions are not permitted to run on by default.

1. load about:config?filter=extensions.webextensions.restrictedDomains in the Firefox address bar
2. remove one, some or all of the domains listed under value to remove the restriction

you do not need to restart the browser, just update the tab addons.mozilla.org
