Windows Firefox.

Too often when I’m working on something and open a page, FF says I have to update first.

Don’t be more annoying than Microsoft.

Limit required updates to 2 times per yer.

Restart to Keep Using Firefox

An update to Firefox started in the background. You’ll need to restart to finish the update.

Your windows and tabs will be quickly restored, but private ones will not.

Waiting six months to send out a security update would be unconscionable. It’s interesting that you mention Microsoft – they have a monthly update schedule for security updates.
