Hi, I keep getting a message that I should update to a newer version of Firefox on Ubuntu. The problem is: I click on the install for 64 bit button, A ...tar.xz file downloads to my desktop, and the process ends completely. How to proceed?

Thanks, Ildikó

How did you install Firefox? There is a Snap on Firefox that updates properly, or you could use our .deb

The tarball is just an archive as there is no package or installer. You just extract and run the firefox script or firefox-bin to start Firefox. You can create a desktop launcher shortcut to it and use a Firefox icon from the /browser/chrome/icons/ folder. Make sure the Firefox folder has read/write permissions for the user so you can get internal Firefox updates from Mozilla.

For you to be stuck on the old Firefox 113.0 likely means your version of Ubuntu (or flavour of) is EOL with package updates including Firefox package. Updating your distro to a current version will be another way to have current Firefox package.
