The auto-downloading behavior for magnet links is not terribly reliable, unfortunately. Did it used to work on the specific site you're using?
A lot of things need to be true at the same time for it to work (it needs to be enabled, you need to left-click it, and it needs to be an <a>
element with an href
attribute using the magnet
protocol), since there's no browser-supported way for extensions to handle opening links:
When it's working, you shouldn't get that popup asking at all. Make sure the setting is enabled (English name: "handle opening downloadable link types"). I don't think anything has changed in Firefox, so I would guess something changed about the site you're using. You can also check in Chrome to see if it works there.
Hi ! thanks for answer ; my problem is resolved, I don't know how it is, but ... it works ! maybe as you said something wrong on the site witch provides the magnet files ... thanks again Sean !

Glad to hear it!
bonjour, j'utilise cette extension sur firefox depuis longtemps et elle me convient très bien ; enfin, jusqu'à hier ! je ne sais pas pourquoi, lorsque maintenant je clique sur un fichier .magnet, firefox me demande avec quelle application je désire ouvrir ce fichier ; j'ai bien essayé d'entrer le chemin de Firefox.exe, mais il ne se passe rien ; j'ai désinstallé et ré-installé l'extension NAS Download Manager, toujours pareil ; est-ce un problème de Firefox, de l'extension, autre ? merci d'avance de vos bons conseils
