Firefox Community Forum

There are way too many annoying updates and they all need admin login -- which doesn't work. How can I turn these off?

I'm switching browsers until these weekly updates are stopped.

I have just been on the phone with my bank after arguing with their bot!

I was having trouble on their website, so they gave me some instructions over issues I was having on their website. I followed their instructions, but the changes I made were not registered. Suddenly, a message came up on my screen from the bank telling me that my firefox is not up to date, as it was only on version 152.0. I then checked to find that Firefox has just released an update to version 152.1.

Thinking that this should not really affect my connections with my bank, I looked up this forum to find that other users have had similar problems, and when investigated, it was the banks IT departments that have been too lazy to adjust their systems to Firefox updates. I also noted that last evening we were having buffering problems on our tv, which may or not have anything to do with the update, although I read from Mozilla Support that this too can happen.

Could you please confirm that this is our problem, and that it will soon correct itself. If not, could you please let us know if there are measures being to prevent this in the near future, as although the tv is not important, it has been a little stressful having to make important transactions with the bank.

I ask this with respect, knowing full well that you have provided me with many years of an excellent free service!
