Details

Steps to reproduce:

I cannot reproduce it.

Actual results:

But yesterdays as i was surfing with Firefox 95.0, when I finished I close Firefox and it informs me that a download was in progress, do I want to quit.

Expected results:

It should have not download anything when I didn't initiate it.

I have Shadow Defender, so I rebooted and reverted my HDD to the saved state.

Component: Untriaged → Downloads Panel

We're aware that we could do better in this area, and we have a project that is being worked on at the moment to provide warnings in some of these cases. I'm going to dupe it over to the relevant bug.
