Download files for marking

Years ago, I chose to download student files to my computer which opens them automatically in Adobe or Word, where I marked them, saved them to my disk then uploaded them to Moodle.
I have now changed computer and that method has disappeared from the grading page (and I have forgotten how I set this). The files open in Moodle window. I cannot find it in

Where can I reset that setting to download the file to my PC automatically?

Thank you

That is nothing to do with moodle. It is a setting on your computer. Currently you have your computer set to open files in your browser - go to default apps and file types and fix it there.

Silly me.
It is in Firefox settings, but it recognised .pdf, but not .doc, .docx
Thank you
