Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; nl; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11

The download window at CTRL+J shows a blank window without entries and neither can I set the destination folder, however my files still go to my standard folder G:\ which was previously set under an older version of firefox.

Tried installing firefox over the existing one, to no effort.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update firefox to 2.0.0.11
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
no more functional download window, no entries, no working destination button.

Expected Results:  
obvious

Were you using any third-party download-manager extensions?  Have you tried setting the default download location manually, under "Downloads" "Save files to" in the "Main" tab of Tools | Options?

Does this work in Safe Mode? [1]  If running under Safe Mode doesn't work, try deleting downloads.rdf [2]

Have not used a download manager other then firefox's native one. Nor any download accelators.
The download path is indeed set in firefox's options.

C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile
This folder contains a folder named 'chrome
bookmarks document
localstore.rdf
mimeTypes.rdf
search.rdf

But not the downloads.rdf file.

Problem is solved, deleted downloads.rdf from C:\Documents and Settings/Spinner/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/lrj0aka9.default/

Guess you ment that folder before, instead of C:\Program Files\Mozilla

It worked, thank you for your support
