The previous versions took around 2-3 seconds to save a single image. This last update saves them instantly. Thanks

Sometimes it'll save all the images i've opened in tabs, othertimes it'll save anywhere between 70%-90% of them. Doing the process again saves all images.
It's half baked. Good when it works, but you absolutely must check how many images you've selected before you open the tabs.

I read about the work-around to get this to work again involving setting browser.tabs.remote.autostart to "false". When I went to about:config though, I saw that it was already set to false, but I also had a setting labeled "browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2", and that was set to "true". Is this unusual?

multi-process disabled it works just fine as it used to -- however, now whenever i try to open several html pages in one tab it opens only a limited number and around half of the html links are not opened - are just blank. I don't know what causes this limitation but a hint like that about multiprocess support would be appreciated

If you disable MultiProcess and restart FireFox Save Images addon will work again.
This info was gained from the below support/hack site which goes into much more detail and the risks and how to backup your profile.

Check if Multi Processing on by typing
about:support and check the Multiprocess Windows will be set to True
To enable or disable multi-process Firefox, do the following
Type about:config in the browser's address bar.
Confirm that you will be careful.
Search for browser.tabs.remote.autostart.
Double-click on the preference. (it will then set as False)
Setting the value of browser.tabs.remote.autostart to true enables the multi-process architecture in Firefox, setting it to false disables it.
Restart Firefox and you can check that it False by typing
about:support (note it is now False)
Test your Save Files and Bingo!

When will this add on be compatible with FireFox 51? We use this add on every day and need it badly
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.1.0.3)."Save Images" does not work correctly with versions of Firefox greater than 48 due to the latest versions of Firefox using multi process functionality. If multi process is disabled, it should work correctly but I cannot guarantee that it will.
Until the developers of Firefox have sorted out all the changes they are making, I will not be updating Save Images.
Trying to upgrade "Save Images" to work now would require losing 80% of is current functionality, which is not worth the effort.

There was a problem saving the image(s).
You may not have permissions to write to the save folder or there is an error with the file name. Please check the permissions of the folder and check the file name options.
The above message appears while using the function to save the image.
I do not know how to solve it.

Don't know why the page says that this extension isn't commpatible with FF48+. I just installed it and used it with no problems whatsoever. My copy of Firefox is 32 bit, 50.0.2.

For now, as I've browsed some of the answers here by Lumox, I just came by to say a huge THANK YOU. This extension saves time, does its job gracefully, was once uncomparable for saving images. My "relationship" with it was of a child: initially, I just wanted for saving images from the current tab. Then I slowly got into the more advanced settings.
The Firefox extensions scene became obscure for quite some time already, and this frustrates most of the best extensions devs. One really needs to LOVE Firefox to keep up with so many confusing changes.
Today, there are some better extensions for the same task and are compatible with the newest Firefox changes. All in all, I totally understand Lumox: patience has its limit.
C ya!
I will upgrade Save Images once the developers of Firefox have a more substantial code base. At the moment, a lot of Save Images functionality would be lost because it is not yet supported.
Which other add-ons are you using in replace of Save Images? I am curious to see what they are capable of and what extra features they have.

when you get to the larger ones, the windows that pops up you have to check and uncheck boxes is really difficult to use. It does not allow the "group" using the shift key for selection and most of the time, you have to manually select each one of hundreds that do not apply what you want to save.

5 stars because it has been a great add-on for a long time. Recently however, it has stopped working.
When attempting to "open ALL image links in 1 tab" it shows the links to open but then, instead of opening a new tab and loading the images, it just switches to the right-most tab of the window and does nothing.
Running Win7 - I updated to FF 49.0.2 but no change.
Interestingly, the "open ALL image links in TABS" works!

Since about 10 days, it does not work anymore. I must each time install again the app, and I lose the time it make me save. If it continue I will stop using it, Pity as it was the best app to save many pic by a simple clik. As written by konart hereunder, if I do not reinstall each time i want to use it, All saved images are 0 bytes.

This extension has been on my must have list for a few years now. It saves a lot of time when I absolutely must have all the pictures!
But now, when I tell it to DL all the pictures, it puts them in folders... wth?
If you have the tree structure selected (default, BTW) it will put your pictures in individual folders 3-7 layers deep!
So now instead of saving so much time with this extension, I'm now spending time taking the pictures out of the individual folders (Who the hell does that?) and putting them where I want them instead.
I probably would be saving a lot of time just DL'ing them individually and putting them where I want them in the first place instead of re-organizing after the fact.
Edit: Mr Lumox here solved my issue for me, and I have revised my rating and wanted to note this here. I don't know how that box was checked, but I can quite honestly say that I didn't manipulate it. If there are any further issues, i will contact you at the email provided. Thank you very much for the assistance.
Nothing has changed in the way the folders are created. The only way multiple folders are created is if you have the setting "Append image URL folder structure to 'Save Folder" checked in your options.
Please export your "Save Images" settings by clicking the "Export" button in the "Save Images Options" window and send me the file and I will check.
