Hi Team,

While opening Firefox web browser via Geckodriver, and when we open the page: about:preferences

if we scroll down to Firefox update, It will get stuck there for indefinite time in "Checking for updates". Can someone look into this issue.

I need to automate the way by which it checks if it is updated or not. Kindly let me know if there are any other steps to check the same. Though above issue is i feel a bug and that is the reason we are writing you down.

Hi, you have to set up a policy to disable updates.

See https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates#disableappupdate
