Someone at @firefox thought that *BLOCKING* the [ENTER] key from confirming the ‘SAVE’ of a content is a good idea … think again - its garbage/bullshit - bring it back before it backfires more …
Works on my machine. Is this about the file browser dialog? That depends on your OS or DE.
Those generally are there because someone has figured out a way to atack your computer. Like, get someome playing a Web game and slamming enter and then pop up a dialog right in the middle so that you inadvertently confirm doing something unpleasant to your computer. The secure setting is probably the right default for most users.

Go to about:config (type into address bar) and set security.dialog_enable_delay setting to 0.
Note: disabling this delay may in theory open you to some pretty non-standard security attacks described in this article (as Otiel pointed out), but I wouldn’t lose sleep about it.

Thank you, this is exactly what this setting is there for.
There is usually a time delay before the button is enabled. At least on Windows.
I disabled the ‘delay’ years ago - even documented it here - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2024/03/18/sensible-firefox-setup/ - right now - the [ENTER] key DOES NOT WORK AT ALL - no matter how many times You press it - its just blocked.
