Can you describe this in more detail? Perhaps provide an example link, and how do you open the download manager? A screen recording would be ideal.

Also, can you provide some more details about your environment - is it perhaps a Citrix or other remote desktop solution? There are a few known issues with those in recent versions of Firefox ESR.
