Why does Firefox start from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\Updated\firefox.exe" after an update? Is there anyway to fix this besides rebooting PC?
hi, having an annoying problem after every time Firefox updates... It will launch from a nonexistent directory and cause my firewall/av to go crazy (ask to allow etc) which is very annoying.

It seems like I have to reboot my PC to fix this crap... any alternatives?

Also, sorry... I'm new here and idk how to edit.
Forgot to add in that it'll keep launching from that nonexistent directory when I try restarting Firefox.

That can be an issue caused by your security software. When an update is downloaded the Firefox builds a new program folder for the new version in the Updated folder. If Firefox isn't able to finish this process and move that directory to replace the current program folder then you can end up with problems like this.
What security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Comodo firewall Avira anti virus
I guess add an exception for the Mozilla Firefox folder?
