User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:81.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/81.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Search for any .XLS file from the web and download with Firefox on Windows 10.
  2. Download dialog that is titled "Opening zzzzzzz.xls" appears with options.
  3. Click the checkbox option "Do this automatically for files like this from now on.
  4. Notice the labeled sentence that appears underneath.

Actual results:

The label that appears says "Settings can be changed using the Application tab in Firefox Options".

Expected results:

This label should be changed to the new Options layout (no longer tab based) and should state something like this "Settings can be changed in Files and Applications section on the General panel within Firefox Settings"
This would be in line with the new naming and layout conventions used in Firefox and documented here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-options-preferences-and-settings

Sorry, that should have stated Firefox's Options like so "Settings can be changed in Files and Applications section on the General panel within Firefox's Options."

I managed to reproduce the issue using an older version of Nightly on macOS 10.13. I retested everything on macOS 10.13, Ubuntu 18.04 and Windows 10 x64 using Firefox 84.0 and Nightly 85.0a1. The issue is not reproducing anymore.
