How do you open the downloads that have been saved? I can make it to the download list but it will not let me open any of them.
When I open an email with an attachment, it downloads the attachment and saves it to my downloads. At a later time, I return to the download list and try to open it and it will not allow me to open them. How do I open my saved downloads?

You can open the downloads from the normal Windows Explorer interface. You do not need a browser to do that.
If the Open or Open Containing Folder entry in the right-click context menu of a file in the Download Manager is grayed then that means that the file is no longer in that original download location. It may have been removed by cleanup software or anti-virus software if you haven't deleted the files yourself.
When I initially click on the attachment of my email, the computer downloads it, but it will not allow any of them to open. I can go to another search engine and they open just fine. I just prefer firefox. thank you for any help you provide.
What kind of files are that (which file extension)?
I too have this problem. the file appears in the Download window, but Open and Open containing folder are greyed out. I cannot access them.
If those entries are grayed then the file is no longer in the original download location and may have been removed by cleanup or anti-virus software.
