Browser not auto updating.
Hi Everyone!
I am not sure if I am missing something or if other people are seeing the same problem.
The problem I am seeing is that Firefox does not seem to be automatically updating. I have checked the settings and the option is selected. It will sit on the version I installed no matter how long I wait. However, if I go to the About page for the browser then it instantly starts downloading the newest version and installs it.
This is not just on my PC either. I support a large number of family PCs and majority of them follow this same behavior.
Any insight into this would be appreciated!
Thanks!

This is because Firefox right now is set to automatic updates disabled. we are evaluating feedback on Firefox 32 and will enable automatic updates when we are confident there are no major issues.
You can of course skip this by going into about Firefox.
So nothing is wrong with your Firefox, auto updates just haven't been turned on yet ;)
