I can't download the xpi for an self-distribution extension

I have created an extension for self-distribution and it is already tested, but the xpi file link only allows me to add the extension in my browser, I can’t download the file to distribute the extension, why can’t I download the xpi?

Hello @imobach.

It may be that clicking the link triggers an install instead of download. Can you try context-click (right-click) and “save as” to see if that works?

Thanks – Ed

Indeed it happens as you say, clicking activates the installation, but the save as option works correctly.

Thanks for your help
