[Bug 1527884] Re: Firefox 43.0: Downloads fail

[Andy Poole]

I also have the same issue on a large number of PCs. 
The workaround mentioned (@svadim - thank you!) does work. 
It appears that the /tmp/mozilla_mozillaUser0 dir is owned by the first person to use it with only owner write permissions set & doesn't get removed at logoff or recreated as /tmp/mozilla_mozillaUser# for each additional user.
Setting global write permissions therefore allow any user access to the dir & downloads can function correctly.
