I accidentally unchecked it for rar files, and now it
autodownloads them to my temp directory, instead of
prompting me (as it should, obviously). Anyway I can get
the prompt back?
 
Mike,
Depending on your OS...
From Windows Explorer> View> Folder options> File types
OR Tools> Folder options> File types
OR Ctrl Panel> Folder options then File Types. Select [file type]> Advanced.
Put a check by
"Confirm open after download."
