Φόρουμ κοινότητας «Firefox»

hi, I love supporting this independent browser - I know its not perfect but it does a great job of doing most things well.

However, and there is a big but. I can be in the middle of an investigation that requires sharing data to a new tab - on opening the tab I'm blocked from going further as Firefox needs to do an update! This is really infuriating. No update can be SO urgent that you stop me using the browser. This is the Microsoft mentality, and its wrong. Can you please investigate NOT forcing users to update their browser during session.

Matt.

I have Updates set to "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" - but several times recently Firefox has blocked me from opening new windows with:

"Restart to Keep Using Firefox An update to Firefox started in the background. You'll need to restart to finish the update. Your windows and tabs will be quickly restored, but private ones will not."

Why is Firefox starting to install updates WITHOUT my consent?

And how do I stop Firefox from doing this?

Hello, Within the past hour, "Checking for Updates" keeps running. I thought checking "choose to install" would limit the numerous times this happens per day, but it hasn't.

I've been experiencing this for a couple weeks and it's getting worse. I'm not sure what's going on.

I'm running Windows 11 and the last FF Mozilla update was #147.01.

Please advise.

Thank you, Gina
