How to keep an older version of firebox and eliminate a newer version?

PC amateur here and today is 9/20/2026; I am now using the next older version of Firefox which I retrieved from my desktop Firefox icon because about a year and a half ago this older version of Firefox got automatically updated to a newer version which is horrible, asking me to go through endless routines going in circles about getting me signed on with Microsoft and more and which keeps coming back every time after I login to my PC, so I have to delete it from my window and replace it with this one. What, if anything, could be done to eliminate this newer version of Firefox?

Hi

Using Windows > Settings > Apps

Uninstall Firefox

But if you want to keep your passwords etc. export them to an csv file etc.

Once you have uninstalled Fx [Restart] do not [Shut down] the later does not clear Window completely.

Then use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox_version_history to find the date/version you want

Then go to https://www.firefox.com/en-US/releases/

and install the version you want
