Firefox browser update prompt

I am suddenly getting pop-up windows from "Firefox Software Updater" as soon as I click the Firefox icon on my desktop (Windows 11) and laptop (Windows 10). The Firefox log in the pop-up is not in color, so I am immediately suspicious. The pop-up window did not happen on my laptop yesterday, but I got it on my desktop today, for the first time. I have answered "no" to the "do you want this app to make changes to this computer?". Is this legit from Mozilla? Usually, the browser updates automatically when I click the icon, saying I am now using the latest version of Firefox. Thank you.

The current release is 120.0.1.

Best is always to update manually via "Help -> About Firefox".
