I have some users running older versions of firefox. I need a script to force firefox to silently update itself on users computers.

I don't think there is a command-line switch for this.

You could store a copy of the installer on one of your servers and have the client execute it if they don't have the latest version. It's obviously simplest if you have an all 64-bit environment. Presumably you would want to check the currently installed version, for example, by checking this registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox

(Default) => 67.0.4

CurrentVersion => 67.0.4 (x64 en-US)
