There is no link for switching update channels under "Help > About Firefox" in my Firefox.

I am currently using Firefox 7.0, but this problem already exists at least since updating to FF 5.0 beta. I'd really love to switch to the release channel, but there is no link for doing so in the menu under "Help > About Firefox".

Only the early Firefox 5.0 Betas as far as Betas went even had this short-lived trial feature in About.

You need to change the channel in the channel-prefs.js file located at <installation directory>\defaults\pref\channel-prefs.js

It is better to download the full version of the release version if you want to switch to the release channel.
