How can I make sure the auto updates are installed in the original installation folder?

Due to the Firefox was always uninstalled automatically from my laptop and workstation, I installed in a specific folder c:\Users\xxx\Mozilla Firefox\ instead of the default folder c:\Program Files\Mozilla\ - it worked well and was not uninstalled automatically again. But the Firefox updates will not be installed in the same folder, and there will be two Firefox listed in Windows Apps list - different revisions. I am wondering if this is a bug and what I should do to have the updates installed in the same folder? thank you.
