Update 108 -> 109, wont work

Hi,

TL:DR, Firefox 108 refuses to update to Version 109.

Firefox refused to update to 109, repeatedly said 108 was the latest version. I was sick of websites breaking so I decided to reinstall Firefox, and the website worked perfectly fine on the reinstalled one, since that app is on 109.

Unfortunately, it caused a whole host of problems since I have two Firefoxes on my laptop. When I finally got rid of the older Firefox, it worked fine…

…until I restarted my laptop. Upon launching Firefox, it crashed my laptop and when it rebooted, the Firefox reverted back to version 108 with 109 nowhere to be found.

How can I get Update 109 on my laptop? Thanks in advance.

Also a version on the Release channel will not just update to a version on the Beta channel.

The current Beta version is Fx 109.0b5 as there can usually be say 9 to 14+ builds of a version on Beta channel.

Unless you want to do some testing, is there a reason you want to use Fx 109.0b# ?

Interesting how, on the reinstalled Firefox, the About Firefox section said I was on Version 109...must've accidentally downloaded a beta or something. Thanks for your answers!
