Hi, I use Firefox version 154.0.1. The issue have been going on for years but Im so tired of it.

I have selected that Firefox shall update the browser even when firefox not running. But everytime there is a new update, I just open the browser as usual but it takes more time because not only does the startpage open, a new tab is open as well telling me the browser is updated. I just want it to open the start page, no more, is this possible?

Thank you in advance.

So it actually does update in the background just fine, when you're eventually greeted with the "success" page, right?

To disable the "What's New" tab opening after major version update, see the configuration mentioned in support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-stop-firefox-making-automatic-connections#w_whats-new-page
