Windows XP SP3, user without admin privileges. FF version 44. Update (firefox => About => restart to complete update") to version 45 fails,

I run the procmon.exe (from sysinternals suite) while the updater.exe executed and I see exactly 10 events, the updater.exe is getting access denied (5) when trying to access the firefox.exe.

But I do have marked "[x] use background service to update fireox" in firefox settings and expected update to perform by mozilla maintenance service (SYSTEM user). THe procmon.exe properties on "access denied" to firefox.exe event show that the updater.exe is running as 'non-admin' user and not as SYSTEM user, which I would expect from update being executed by mozilla maintenance service.

So the question is, why is update security context 'non- admin' user and not SYSTEM  ?

Starting firefox as admin user works, the update completes successfully.

Try to uninstall and reinstall the maintenance service. You can uninstall the maintenance service via the Windows control panel.

You can find the installer in the Firefox program folder.

You did install the maintenance service as a normal user and not as administrator?

What you need to do if Firefox is not automatically updating anymore - gHacks Tech News:

pardon me, what dependencies ?

After reinstalling FF I verified that Mozilla Maintenance was installed and I could start the Maint service from non-admin user.
