User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20131205075310 Steps to reproduce: Every thing i can do and at firefox 25 and lower work fine at firefox 26 DOESN'T even plugins i have and do this AUTOMATICALLY now it doesn't. Actual results: Absolute nothing the download history still remains until i clear it MANUALLY. This i DON'T want to do it manually every time i download something from firefox.... Expected results: Clear AUTOMATICALLY/INSTANTLY every completed downloaded file as it would do to all previews versions of firefix except firefox 26

Any solution?
You can use a private browsing window to download stuff that you want to keep private.
File/New private window or Tools/Options/Privacy/Never remember history And after you close Firefox everything is cleared.

I think what he meant was removing from list after successful downloading.

Probably, but that's not possible. The solutions in comment 3 look fair to me.
