Resolution: --- → DUPLICATE
I don't think this is a duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120679. That bug is about files saved by Firefox, not files in Firefox's profile. Would it be possible to unmark this as a duplicate? (I can confirm that the behavior still occurs in Iceweasel 41.0.)
This is not a duplicate, indeed.
