Can I permanently turn off InformationUpdate available' which appears each time I open Firefox. I must click Dismiss to close it. The problem is that after each update, many services to which I log every day, state that I am logging from a new device and I must complete a time consuming procedure of adding a new device in many places. And I don’t need most of the updates.

Good day! Initially, I installed Firefox version (x64 ru) 147.0.3. After updating via the "Help - About Firefox - Update" menu, I received version 147.0.4. However, there are two entries about installed Firefox in the Windows section "Installed applications": 1. Mozilla Firefox (x64 ru) 147.0.3 and 2. Mozilla Firefox (x64 ru) 147.0.4. Although one instance of the program is installed. How do I remove an extra entry? Thank you.

PS: I have Windows 11 Pro 25H2 (26200.7840, 1000.26100.291.0) Russian CPU AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor RAM 32,0 ГБ System x64 Video NVidia GeForce 1650

I was sent the message: Your Firefox has been updated🎉 Celebrating 150 Firefox releases. It lists a lot of great things but I need to know if all those "great things" are free or do I have to pay for those perks. I do not understand most of what is being touted as great in the computer world, so I'm not sure if I want it or not.......

Hi there, I'm trying to make a little old machine useful it is an HP mini (Laptop) with an Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N455 @ 1.66GHz and 2GB of RAM; it appears the firefox version is too old to install some extensions/add-on like uBlock... I don't want to throw it in the trash; any recommendation please?

Hello,

I use a Powershell script to manually install a Firefox update.

Starting with version 128.10.xx and higher, Update.exe expects different parameters, but I'm not sure what the parameter names mean (see screenshot).

Can someone explain to me what I need to pass for “arg-version” and “wich-invocation”? All other parameters were already present in the previous version of Update.exe, and I understand those, but unfortunately I don't know exactly what I need to pass for these two.

Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Dell recently re-installed my Firefox program but it seems to be an older version. Although I can find my bookmarks the bookmark toolbar is gone and that was a very handy feature. How do I update the program and get my toolbar back?

Pop up notification for an outdated profile/version of firefox when firefox was closed which made the game tab out and I couldn't move until I was able to tab back in. How do I get rid of this and keep my current profile and get it up to date so that I can use the same profile?

Zdravím! Prakticky každé tri dni sú akési aktualizácie. Predtým bolo v nastaveniach všetko priehľadné, teraz ste to "poskrývali", že to musím hľadať, kde čo je! Nenávidím to !!

Chcem sa vrátiť o niekoľko verzií späť, kde to bolo jednoduché, priehľadné, skrátka fajn! Každou aktualizáciou to len komplikujete a komplikujete, viac a viac!

A potom "vyskakovacie okná". Tie vaše! Príklad: Pozerám youtube na malý screen. Ak si dám video na celý monitor, okamžite, asi na 5 sec. vyskočí okno - "youtube is now full screen". Robí to vždy, všade, pri všetkých videách, nielen na youtube, ak zmením formát na "full screen". Toto ma extrémne vytáča! Viete, ja som sprostý primitív, ja, ak si dám video na "full screen", ja to ešte potrebujem oznámiť vyskakovacím oknom! Niečo nenormálne! Napíšte mi, kde sa to dá v nastaveniach zmeniť! Alebo to zmeňte sami, keď tu každé tri dni robíte neustále aktualizácie! Ďakujem a dúfam, že sa z Vašej strany dočkám odpovede.

S pozdravom,

Hello! Practically every three days there are some kind of updates. Before everything was transparent in the settings, now you "hid" it, that I have to look for it, where it is! I hate it!!

I want to go back a few versions, where it was simple, transparent, in short, great! With each update you just complicate and complicate it, more and more!

And then "pop-ups". Yours! Example: I'm watching youtube on a small screen. If I put a video on the whole monitor, immediately, for about 5 seconds. a window pops up - "youtube is now full screen". It does it always, everywhere, with all videos, not only on youtube, if I change the format to "full screen". This is extremely annoying to me! You know, I'm a stupid primitive, if I put a video on "full screen", I still need to notify it with a pop-up window! Something abnormal! Write to me where it can be changed in the settings! Or change it yourself, when you make constant updates here every three days! Thank you and I hope to hear from you.

Best regards,

I'm running Firefox browser 88.0 (64) bit, and have been trying since before Xmas to upgrade it to a newer version. It's installed on an older Dell laptop running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (which I've also tried repeatedly to upgrade without success).

I've tried to upgrade both through the UI, but also tried using the command line in Terminal. Per advice in other threads, I've found the best mirror site and changed my settings to use that, but still no luck. Even the preliminary "sudo apt update" via Terminal fails; the first error tells me that the public key is not available. I assume that's the place to start, but don't know how to correct it.

I'm up against the deadline for updating my browser, and would very much appreciate any help you can provide. (Please note that I'm posting from a newer computer, so automatically generated info about my system won't apply. See the screenshots for that info).

I try to update Firefox once a month, but every 6 hours I am notified about the release of a new version, so I have to click Cancel. Is it possible to increase this interval (at least to 24 hours) or disable it altogether?

I tried changing settings "app.update.interval" and "app.update.background.interval" but it didn't help.

Currently, my Firefox Browser continues operating under Windows 10, without a known Windows 11, operating Browser update correction! Is there a solution to this problem?

I contacted Mozilla Support and was issued a ticket ID that is 438455!

Your help is greatly appreciated, Thanks.

What does this mean? being updated by another instance

Is this why my FF is running godawful slow today?
