    One of my most beloved essential and normally 5 Stars Add-Ons stopped working actually after the lasted Firefox Update to Version 112.0! I hope for a Support Update of QuickCut!

    Unfortunately the Firefox developers have made a change to stop allowing .url files from being saved. The bug report is still open (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1827115) so I'm hoping this gets fixed.

    I also have recently worked on a new feature to allow users to choose their own file extension / file contents which will hopefully also help.. But it seems .url files are just not going to be able to be downloaded until the regression gets fixed.

    As a temporary work-around you could change file type to .html. This still works and does work on Windows.

    When I save it as url and doble click it I get message box ...file came from another computer. It is not so when drag link from chrome(it is again .url link). So, author did not do simple job. BTW no options to drag link from firefox to desktop. favorites bar in firefox is not high enough....now yopu know why all people like chrome.

    That's just it works; the extension downloads a file (url), when you download a file on windows it flags it as downloaded from an external source and sets it as dangerous.

    The code is open source and on Gitlab if you want to send me a pull request fixing the issue since you sound much more competent than me.
