On Monday September 25th from 10PM EDT - 12AM EDT (2AM UTC - 4AM UTC on September 26th), we will be performing system maintenance on the Firefox Accounts databases for two hours. During the maintenance window, there will be brief periods of a few minutes where users will not be able to login to their accounts. Please try again at a later time.

Windows 10 64bit. Firefox is installed in a folder on D: drive When Firefox is automatically updated, the shortcuts on the taskbar, desktop and anywhere are deleted. It didn't happen before. Can it be caused by the new update method? (the folder with previous version is renamed to .bak, the new version is installed to a new folder with the same name)
