Every time firefox 55.0.1 starts, when I look it's downloading 55.0.1 and wants re-install every time I start the browser. Only noticed because it wanted the admin account password when I start the browser.

Chosen solution

Manually downloaded the new version. It installed and has quit trying to download and install.

actually, it's 55.0.2 that keeps downloading....acts like it's not taking the admin signon to do the upgrade.
