Firefox Requiring Admin UAC to Update - Still Fails

Firefox will randomly require an admin to install the latest update and then go 10 or so updates without any admin access needed.

Work device, all users are non admin making this extremely tedious to update a browser that brings a new update almost every 3-5 days.

On top of that, I elevated to admin and went to the help > About section and pressed Restart to Update Firefox and entered admin creds and still its refusing to update. Just re-opens on 151.0.4.

On the previous version it did the same thing. I completely wiped my firefox from the system, removed all registry and file settings, rebooted, and did a fresh install.

now on 152.0 its doing the same thing again.

This is pretty similar to the previous issue that was addressed before - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1558712

I'm hoping its not SentinelOne EDR related again. Not getting any crashes, so unless S1 is hooking into it and preventing the update, not sure what else it could be.

Should mention

"now on 152.0 its doing the same thing again."

On 151.0.4 trying to go to 152.0 and doing the same thing (asking for admin, give it admin in UAC, it proceeds to state its going through with install popup and then re-opens on 151.0.4 like it failed / didn't even try). No errors
