How To Configure Mozilla Firefox updates

There are two ways to update Mozilla Firefox:

Manual update

Click on the button “Help” at the top of the browser and in the pop-up window click on the menu “About Firefox”.  It will automatically check and download the updates and when the installation is finished, click on “Restart Firefox to Update”.

Tip! If you already have the latest version, you will see in “About Firefox” window “Firefox is up to date”. Then you don’t need to do anything.

 

Automatic update

Go to your browser settings. Press a button with three horizontal stripes in the upper right corner of the window and then open “Options”. Go to the tab “Advanced”, click on the “Update” tab and choose “Automatically install updates”. Now, the browser will update itself automatically, and when the installation is finished, then it will require restarting Mozilla Firefox browser to apply the changes.

You will need to perform Mozilla restart, or reboot the operating system. If it doesn’t help, you can try to clear the cache. “CCleaner” program is perfect for it. Go to the official web page and download the program.

Once you install this program, open it and click on “Applications” tab and then mark only “Internet cache” in “Firefox” settings and click “Analyze”. Shut down the Mozilla, and then click on “Run Cleaner”. Then you can try to update Mozilla Firefox again.

If cleaning the cache didn’t help, download Mozilla Firefox from here, , re-install it and then you will have the newest version of this browser.
