Hello. Just looked at the release notes for FF94 and am a bit concerned about this part:

"On Windows, there will now be fewer interruptions because Firefox won’t prompt you for updates. Instead, a background agent will download and install updates even if Firefox is closed."

Does this mean what I think it means? Namely that: (a) updates will be forced on us with no "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" option? (b) Firefox will be running software on your PC even if the browser itself isn't running?

I really hope I am misreading this! Thanks.

One-off bump. Can anyone confirm if the "Check for updates but let you choose to install them" option is still present in FF94?
