Bonjour, qui te demande de télécharger firefox, est ce que c'est quand tu est sur un site ou un logiciel externe ? si tu la déjà sur ton ordinateur tu n'a pas besoin de le faire. aussi tu peux vérifier la mise à jour de firefox.

Thank you Hector, it has taken me this long to reply, as my French is limited! I have taken to ignore as you have suggested. I am still with Windows 10, I will be changing soon, once again, merci for your advice Gary

Who is asking you to download it? What message do you see? Can you upload a screenshot?

The UserAgent you used to post this thread seems fine Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:153.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/153.0

The most common reason I have seen people asking why they are being asked to install Firefox is when they are using Firefox on iOS/iPadOS and trying to install a Extension meant for desktop Firefox or Firefox for Android. The Firefox on iOS/iPadOS uses webkit as a base and not Gecko is why.
