I LIKE MY VERSION OF FIREFOX.

I WAS (AGAIN) FORCED TO UPDATE BY FIREFOX.

THE DEFINITION OF MALWARE IS GETTING SOMETHING YOU DO NOT WANT OR ORDER.

HOW DO I STOP THIS FORCED NONSENSE?

OR DO I JUST STOP WASTING MY TIME ON THIS DECREASING WEB BROWSER???

BY THE TIME I DO ANYTHING YOU FORCED ME TO AN UPDATE!!! YOU SUCK.

Please turn off your Caps Lock. In text talk, this is shouting.


How do you completely turn off update checks in Firefox v64? You can use a policies.json file to disable updates for all users. https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md or https://winaero.com/blog/disable-updates-firefox-63-above/

You can use a policies.json file in the distribution folder in the Firefox installation folder instead as also listed in the article, so no need to use GPO keys in the Windows Registry. • https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/customizing-firefox-using-policiesjson
