So we update Firefox via PatchMyPC from SCCM. We don't want to disable Firefox Updates. The issue is how do you stop the Update notification popup every time you start Firefox. You don't have this issue on Edge and Chrome

If the updates are coming from Firefox, you would need the update notification to tell users to update?

There is an OverrideFirstRunPage and OverridePostUpdatePage policy.

A screenshot would probably help.

That looks like we're unable to get updates at all.

So updates have been disabled.

Can you go to about:config and set the preference app.update.log to true and look in the Javascript console for errors related to doing an update?
