Noticed 3 entries for various versions of Firefox in the Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps. There is one Firefox record in the Start menu. 1. I have unistalled all the entries through the Windows Settings, deleted all folders for Moxilla and Firefox, cleaned the registry of every mention of Mozilla or Firefox. 2. Installed newly downloaded Firefox 137.0 three days ago. 3. After today update to v. 137.0.1 - I again have 2 entries in the Settings > Apps > Installed apps: v. 137.0 and v. 137.0.1. The same problem was with Thunderbird. I also cleaned all the folders and the Registry, then fresh installed it again. Thunderbird was not updated, so I don't know if the problem has returned. Maybe something is wrong with the Mozilla installer? What should I do to have just one Mozilla Firefox entry in the Windows Settings > Apps > Installed apps after update as it was years before? (My system is: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 English US, Firefox 64-bit English US)

Additional information: I found that the Uninstall registry entries are stored in different hives: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox 137.0 (x64 en-US) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Mozilla Firefox 137.0.1 (x64 en-US)

Why does the installer write data to different registry sections?
