Is "UpdateBrowserForApp" message from Firefox?
Periodically, randomly is all I can say, a message window opens when I power on with a statement about "UpdateBrowserForApp" having stopped working; and then I'm given options to close the program, etc. See attached screenshot.
Firefox is the only browser I use. Is this message from Firefox or does it mean I should do something related to Firefox?
Thanks for whatever info or help you can give. Lee
