Disable automatic open file to docs google in firefox
Are you get sick with docs.google.com ? sometimes when you want to download document in excel or word , it always launches it to google docs
There is a person like me that I search in google. He has some problem with me. He want to disable this application for some documents :
This is a feature that I normally like: I click on a .DOC document, and it launches in Google Docs. Great, I can scan it and read it without having to launch Word. However, sometime there’s a document I’ve recently needed to open many Word documents from Intranets or behind protected website. Google Docs chokes on these and show an error. So, I tell Firefox to always open .DOC files with Word. The behavior remains. I log out of my Google account, thinking perhaps the behavior is triggering somewhere below the application layer. Nope, I click on a .DOC link and I’m taken to the login page for Google Docs.
There’s a solution that I get from google too ( This problem usually come when you using google toolbar on your firefox. To disable it :
- On your Google Toolbar for Firefox, click Settings.
- Choose Options….
- In the Features section, de-select the Docs checkbox.
- Click OK to save your changes.
If you thinks the setting is already like on above, and no change in this behavior. Just choose restore defaults.
For firefox , follow this way :
- Open Tools – Options
- Choose Applications tab
- Choose OK
Tell Firefox to Always Ask for Excel and Word Document

Try to open your docs
