the last few firefox updates are messing with windows graphics settings and not just firefox browser, it took weeks to get my windows settings back, to keep this from happening again i had to remove firefox when it updated without my permission, and b4 it messed further with windows settings i removed ff all together,,i re-installed version 100.0,,,,,i typically have 4 to 5 ff windows open and 20+ tabs in each,,i lost all of those, bookmarks, i only got bookmarks back by syncing to a second pc minus 2 months,,still missing all the windows/tabs,, if i cant prevent ff from updating i will have to find another browser to use, there is no absolute button in settings to prevent updates if ff is restarted, there isnt even a button to prevent downloading updates without express permission.

me45424,

Click on "Open Application Menu" (3 bars, top right but below tabs) Ensure "General" is selected (left-hand window pane, top option) Scroll to near bottom searching for "Allow Firefox to" Select "Check for updates but let you choose to install them"

A notice of update available will pop up when an update is available but it will not update. I have to use this because I run Webroot SecureAnywhere and also Firefox is run under Sandboxie.
