I keep getting a message asking if I would like to update Firefox or Firefox Add-ons. How can I stop this happening?


To prevent Firefox automatically checking for updates you will need to:-

  • Open Firefox browser
  • Click the Menu icon in the top right of the screen
  • Click Preferences
  • Click the Advanced icon
  • Click the Update tab
  • Under Firefox updates select Never check for updates
  • Click OK

You should only have to do this once - the changes will remain even if you login on a different PC.
