Right Click Download User Guide

What This Tool Does Right Click Download is an accessibility-focused Firefox extension designed to make saving images easier. It allows you to download images from websites using either a mouse or a keyboard. The tool works on standard images, background images, and clickable image buttons. When you download an image, the extension automatically renames it with a precise timestamp, so you never have to type a filename manually. It also captures the "Alt Text" description of the image and displays it to you, which is helpful for verifying that you have downloaded the correct visual content.

How to Use With a Mouse To use the tool with a mouse, simply move your cursor over the image you wish to save. Press the right mouse button to open the context menu. Look for the option labeled "Download This Image" and click it. The download will begin immediately, and a confirmation window will appear.

How to Use With a Keyboard This extension supports full keyboard navigation. First, use the Tab key to move the focus to the image or button you want to download. Once the item is focused, press the Menu Key on your keyboard (usually located between the right Alt and Ctrl keys) or press Shift + F10. This will open the context menu. Use the Down Arrow key to highlight the "Download This Image" option and press Enter to select it.

The Success Window and Accessibility Timer After the download starts, a small popup window appears to confirm the action. This window shows you a preview of the image, the new filename, and the Alt Text description found on the webpage. By default, this window includes an eight-second timer that will automatically close the window to save you a click.

To make this easier to read, the timer includes a smart pause feature. If you move your mouse cursor over the window or focus on it using the keyboard, the timer effectively pauses. This prevents the window from closing while you are reading the filename or Alt Text. You can also click the "Keep Open" button to stop the timer permanently for that session, or click "Close Now" to dismiss the window immediately.

File Naming The extension automatically names every file using the current date and time in a year-month-day format. For example, a file might be named img-2025-11-23-22-08-01.jpg. This ensures that your downloaded images are always unique and sort chronologically in your folder without you needing to type anything.

Troubleshooting If the extension cannot find an image source or if the website blocks the download for security reasons, a red error dialog will appear. This window provides the technical reason for the failure so you can understand why the specific image could not be saved.
