by Firefox user 13667011, pirms 5 gadiemThere is a bug with downloads icon if it is dragged to toolbar AND removed autohide from it. After all downloads are automatically cleared by Downloader Cleaner Lite - download icon stays blue! (arrow and line under it) :( It should be gray automatically right after Downloader Cleaner Lite did it's job, it's not logical for icon to display as blue because list is empty in that moment. Makes user think Downloader Cleaner Lite did nothing.

- Rated 4 out of 5by PreferWaterFox-Palemoon, pirms gadaWorks as advertised. Thanks! :) A shame this functionality isn't built-in...anymore (?). My only disappointments (possibly outside the author's control) are that I'd also like the window to pop open automatically when a download begins and close automatically when all downloads end. An option for "Pop to front" on new downloads if the window is already open would round out the features. But something is always better than nothing.

Sadly, it doesn't work on Firefox 108. I set the removal delay, but nothing happens.Developer response
posted pirms gadaHi, I'm sorry to hear you're having problems with the extension. Please open an issue on GitHub or contact me using the support mail address indicated on the add-on page so I can help you. Include details about your environment (FF version, operating system etc) so I can try and identify the issue. - Rated 5 out of 5by Schyler, pirms 2 gadiem
- Rated 5 out of 5by Karpan Koroviziniek, pirms 2 gadiemIt does exactly what it says it does, and you can either have the history entry deleted as soon as you finish the download, or set the number of minutes for the deletion after the download is completed. Very convenient, simple but practical add-on.
- Rated 5 out of 5by miro, pirms 2 gadiemVery useful to remove downloaded files from list when they finish. Idk why I'd want a list of downloaded files when I can just open the folder. The purpose of a manager is to manage downloads in progress / errors.

posted pirms 5 gadiemHi, thank you for reporting this. It appears there is a bug in the Firefox 70 API. // It’s better to use GitHub or mails to report issues. While I receive notification mails when reviews are posted, these mails don’t contain the text.- Rated 5 out of 5by DigDeep, pirms 5 gadiem

- Rated 5 out of 5by Termie , pirms 6 gadiemone of these tiny AddOn's which make the daily browser routine more comfortable. While my beloved older Firefox ESR erased my download history reliable automatically, this odd Quantum version didn't it anymore - now again, thanxx to this useful AddOn.
- Rated 5 out of 5by recycler.fox, pirms 6 gadiemPerfect. Actually, I'm glad it keeps history for a minute or more, because sometimes on some sites happens 'accidental' downloads, so this delay allows to check "what the hell was that".
- Rated 5 out of 5by Dypsis, pirms 6 gadiemThanks for this. I have no use to keep a list of completed downloads. Instant removal would be good, but I see that it is not possible.
- Rated 5 out of 5by hyperstriker, pirms 7 gadiemIt does what it says it do, but user should be able to set interval based on seconds and not lock for minutes or/and instantly by a check box, like other past version...

posted pirms 7 gadiemThanks for the review! I very much agree with you. However, the “alarms” API does not allow a delay of less than one minute. So this isn’t possible. Sorry! - Rated 5 out of 5by Adi, pirms 7 gadiem
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12682354, pirms 7 gadiemDoes exactly what it says it does. Great little Add-on. Never understood why Firefox removed this option to begin with.
- Rated 5 out of 5by mecki78, pirms 7 gadiemDoes what it claims to do and works as expected, so there's no reason not to rate it 5 stars.
