Why can't I choose the time of your updates

It's really annoying when Firefox decides to update. I get shut down with no warning whatsoever in the middle of my session. If I can choose permission options for updates, why can't I choose time options? As I am sure you are aware, Windows allows update time options and a warning, which includes several time periods, before shutting down, so why can't you?

HI, if you would go to Options --> General than down near the bottom and check the radio button to Check for updates but let you choose to install them. This should provide you with a alert.

As Support Volunteers do not have a say in such matters there is nothing that can be done about that here. But you can. Please go to 3 Bar Menu --> Help --> Submit Feedback and it will be reviewed by a dedicated team.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
