- by Firefox user 15989944, 9 months agoRated 5 out of 5So far so good. Just no option to choose a destination folder on save so they all go to a big God-forsaken Windows virtual folder where you have to retrieve them if you want to file them properly. Or am I missing something?

Thanks so much for that response! Open Save As to confirm file name solves it for me.
Would I be correct in guessing you struggled to decide whether to put that under Template or Destination? (Personally, Destination would have been the obvious place to look for a new user.) If I may say, I see no reason why you shouldn't put it in both places. I wish user interfaces did that so you're not running into dead ends so often.
Other than that, I love the way you've laid out the Options - as a simple list of expandable headings. Thank you! It's such an irritation to have each item separated by big breaks so you can't take it all in at a glance, even worse to have a new dialogue for each item like Windows has it so you're always going down rabbit holes into dead ends and back looking for what you need.Developer response
posted 9 months agoExtensions cannot save files outside the "Downloads" folder automatically. You can however save files in a sub-folder (see the option "file name > template" > help > third example). An alternative is to install "SingleFile companion" but it requires some technical knowledge, see https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile/tree/master/companion for more information.
Edit: Thank you for the feedback! I decided to include the folder name in the template because it can work with other destinations. I also try to do my best within the technical limitations imposed by the extension environment. - by Artyom, 9 months agoRated 4 out of 5

posted 9 months agoIt's technically complicated to save scripts reliably. You can try to disable disable the setting "Other resources > remove scripts". I cannot guarantee it will work as you expect though.- by Drakwla, 9 months agoRated 5 out of 5

- by Liadry, a year agoRated 5 out of 5Thank you so much for such an amazing addon! I literally can't imagine my internet life without it after being using it for year.
The only problem I got is unintended resetting of all addon settings after every update of Firefox. Please, fix that if possible. - by 朱xx, a year agoRated 5 out of 5
- by Firefox user 12343100, a year agoRated 5 out of 5This is what I've been looking for for a very long time. I've long liked Safari's ability to save a page as a Webarchive file, but didn't like that it was a proprietary format. Saving via Firefox was okay, but clunky with the way it saves all the files and graphics separately. SingleFile is great, saving everything as a single HTML file. What is this magic where they can include the graphics invisibly in the file? I can still edit the HTML to remove undesirable stuff without breaking the saved file. This extension is so incredibly useful that I hope it's never abandoned.

- by Firefox user 11430268, a year agoRated 5 out of 5La qualité de ce module va au-delà de mes espérances. Presque tout y est, et en tout cas l'essentiel, ce qui est clairement l'objectif de ce type d'add-on. Très utile pour les recherches académiques, ou l'archivage pour la gestion administrative, p. ex. les consommateurs face aux CG fluctuantes des commerçants.
En revanche, j'ai l'impression qu'il n'est pas aisément possible d'annoter un fichier HTML SingleFile après l'avoir sauvegardé (i. e. pour y apporter une modification ou une note plus tard).
