I have an older version of Firefox. How do I install the latest version? If I follow the instructions for installing Firefox will it automatically upgrade my current version? Why is Firefox not automatically installing newer versions?

hello rkhpci, yes firefox should automatically update every six weeks (or between if there's a critical security update). in the past this might not have worked when you had a restricted user account.

please download the newest firefox version for your system and language from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ and install it on top of your current installation. this will keep all your bookmarks, customizations and so on...
