Dear all,

Is it possible to configure FF (Thunderbird,..) to silently apply updates to itself, its plugins and add-ons, without bothering the user all the time (asking and waiting for approvals), displaying update screens, etc ?

Windows Update, Chrome and Apple manage to do this silently (in the background). I understand most of us here want to see whats going on, but in my case my parents only get more confused! And for safe surfing, i tell them NOT to OK anything which they don't know or expect.....

See the article at the following page:

[https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Updating+Firefox]

Towards the bottom of the article you will find how to have FF update with out popping up a update dialog panel. Remember that almost all updates will want you to restart FF though you can restart at a later time.

I of course tried the options and retried them with davedwan's recommendations, but FF still nags you when for example noscript is updated. I still hope there's an option or an about: thing to make it completely silent.

thx, rgds, Willem
