Installing the newest Firefox Browser each time a Windows Sandbox is started.

Today I manually download and rename the firefox executable so a script that runs as a Sandbox is spun up is ready to go immediately. But that entails me manually downloading, then renaming the installer to a name that the script always knows. And often the setup file gets updated on the web and I am running the prior version, or older depending on when I went thru that manual process.

So I am back looking for a way to either find a way to download the newest installer each time or find a way to kick off the internal updater right after its currently scripted install completes. Either could work.

I hate having to use Edge as its the browser MS automatically installs when a sandbox is spun up.

Or are there other ideas on how to accomplish this? Thanks, Bill

Ok, I guess I cannot get there from here on that question. And will post another one that uses the small installer and downloads the file each time. I am trying to see if that can be run silently, as I think that same installer will always download the newest browser that is on their site (hopefully)
