Thank you for your response.

I downloaded the offline version of Firefox and used an ini to install it silently! Worked perfectly!

I was looking for help in the scripting process, but as I didn't need anything too fancy with the install I merely used: 

   [file path]\Firefox_Setup_56.0.exe -ms

Worked like a charm.

I did try only a couple times: 

   [file path]\Firefox_Setup_56.0.exe /INI=[file path]\firefox.ini

I couldn't get it to work right - no bother.
