Hi! More than a month ago, I realised that my firefox nightly version is few months old. It couldn't update itself, everytime I tried to use update function, after restarting browser it didn't udpate and it didn't even restart, just close itself. So I downloaded latest version from mozilla site to update. But now I remembered that moment and checked what version I have. Guess what, it's that version I downloaded back then. And I can't update it still. I don't know what the error is, but I know what it's connected to it. Every time I open firefox I have to open it double. First opening does literally nothing, and I have to open it 2nd time to open it.

Download and install the full version if you have a problem with updating.

I can update if I download new version. Just firefox can't update itself using "About" page.

Something has changed. I still have to open firefox twice. But the first one opens and immediatly closes.

Still nothing has changed, the problem still occurs. And it's very frustrating since Nightly should be updated every day. It'd be nice to have auto-update and not to download it each time manually
