Firefox Installs Background Upates and Restarts Itself No Matter What I Do
Firefox effectively crashes every time they roll out an update. This has been going on for years and every option in the UI that seems to affect this behavior actually does nothing. The only solution seems to be writing some kind of JSON policy file that prevents automatic updates entirely. Why has this massive defect been present so long and why isn't the company interested in fixing it?
