How to completely turn off Firefox update reminders?

I don't want to upgrade callbacks. At any time. Never.
When I decided to spend some time in the future, I will use the manual upgrade.
How can I do?
Thanks in advance.

          Log on to an administrator account or the account used to install Firefox.
        * 2
          Open a Firefox browser window.
        * 3
          Locate the browser's menu. Select "Tools" and "Options" and wait for the pop-up window to appear. Choose "Advanced" and "Update."
        * 4
          Find the portion of the "Update" section that reads "Automatically Check for Updates to..." and uncheck "Firefox." You also have the choice of deselecting "Installed Add-ons" and "Search Engines." If you decide to uncheck the other two, Add-ons and Search Engines will not be checked for updates, either.
        * 5
          Verify that the "When Updates to Firefox are Found..." section grays. A gray section means that the section is no longer relevant and that updates will no longer be checked.
        * 6
          Click "OK" and enjoy an update-free Firefox web-browsing experience.
        * 7
          Select "Help" and "Check for Updates" in Firefox's menu or visit Firefox's official website regularly to check for new updates. Firefox should always be updated to the newest build so that security features are installed and you and your personal information remain protected while on the Internet.

I hope this helps!

  • How can I turn off auto update?

    I had FF never check the value. On its own, this parameter was changed to "Check for updates but let me choose". However, the parameter is actually, "install automatically". How can I fix it? I can decide on updates all by myself.

    The change was 28 V to V 29.

    There was a previous way by going into the Options menu to turn off updates, but after this, when you go to help > on Firefox, it would update regardless of this setting.

    You can set these prefs in about:config to turn off the automatic update:

    App.Update.auto - false

    App.Update.Enabled - false

    App.Update.Silent - false

  • How can I turn off the update feature?

    I have a HP Pavilion laptop. All of a sudden, with no warning, the computer stops to install updates. I am told not to close my computer while updates are being configured. I've lost so much already (my other computers, desktops and at work, have auto-saving, so I'm not used to save constantly) and I tired. How do I disable this feature or at least get to give me a warning so I can record updates. Thank you!

    effytwo,

    If you select the download updates but let me choose... option, no update will install without your approval. Suppose an update will require a reboot and does not approve the installation of an update until & unless you are ready to restart.

    You can change the setting "notify only". Once you have done this, you will need to approve the updates are downloaded updates are installed commandeLorsque, which they are installed.

    I prefer "Notify only" setting.

    When they are installed.

  • The windows of the bar of Windows are already a form of tabs, so I need them in Firefox. How can I turn off completely from the 23 of Firefox?

    RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
    The windows bar already functions as a tab bar. These tabs are called "windows". So, I find windows superfluous Firefox tab. How can I turn off completely from the 23 of Firefox? I don't need to what are essentially the bars of TWO Windows covering the entire width of the image of my screen! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen, and if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position towards the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK at the windows of Firefox tabs bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a SECOND bar Windows superfluous.

    Here are my reasons why I prefer to use Mozilla's Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. I love and admire Firefox intended to Mozilla on good security for Personas Firefox Add-on and for free use of Firefox in the Add on Ad-Block, which, as you know, has the merit of separate to reduce the size of the screen - the last is my reason for wanting to get rid of "windows" Firefox SUPERFLUOUS tabs bar. I'm terribly sick companies forcing bars (most representative of marketing campaigns, trying to sell me something) in my browser (and in my throat) whenever I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I have deliberately talking about your bar of Firefox tabs as a '' windows' tabs Firefox bar', because the TABS are WINDOWS!)

    You can also have an addon to open new tabs in a new window.

  • How can I turn off the laptop after restoring it to factory settings?

    Hello everyone

    I'm selling my Portege R830-10 q If I want to restore it to the settings to factory (out-of-box state) AND THEN TURN IT OFF.

    I brought the laptop to factory settings successfully using the _TOSHIBA recovery Wizard_ and choosing * factory default software recovery (Recover State out-of-box) *. However, at the end of the process of recovery and after everything is back in place I was not able to TURN off the POWER to the laptop. It only gave me the option to restart. After rephrasing it, the Windows installation process starts.

    I don't want to install Windows, i.e. language, keyboard, user account, etc. I want to leave the Windows installation for the person buying the laptop to me. How can I turn off the laptop after the recovery of the system without having to install Windows?

    I would appreciate your help.

    Concerning

    Pedro

    When the recovery process is complete and you are prompted for a reboot just press start button / stop and turn it off. I think it's only thing you can do.

    Anyway, why not start Windows and go through the configuration option. New owner can modify this basic anyway parameters. As username Admin and language and the keyboard can be set as default.

    For example, if you have a picture of German recovery set to German. New owner can change in any case.

  • Why my OS took so much space and how can I turn off automatic Back-ups?

    Hi, I'm opperating on Windows Vista Basic Home Edition on top of a HP540 Tower, which has 160 GB hard drive.

    Except for the 20 GB Partition, I stayed with 129 GB to install a fresh on o/s.

    After installing my o/s and updates the 7Gig to clean Documents saved from after installation.

    I was left with 99 Go!

    Something wrong without a doubt!

    Even more, I'm losing memory on my hard drive like there is no tomorrow, 30 GB in 4 days!

    It seems every time I'm streaming videos, or even just to watch videos, an external hard drive.

    I lose about 1 or 2 GB!

    Using a number of antivirus programs, I scanned for a virus, but all programs concluded that the

    the system is clean and that there is no virus!

    This led me to believe that the system backup and restore several coppies of his car, then

    I have used the disk clean up to remove all but the most recent backup file.

    All of a sudden my disk space is increased from 69BG to 99 GB.

    I still don't know what happened to the other Go 20 or 21.

    Although this seems to be a difficulty, with in a few minutes that the backup has been busy writing far still and in

    15 minutes that I had fallen to 97.3 GB and deminuishing.

    Why my OS took so much space and how can I turn off automatic Back-ups?

    Thank you very much!

    Nothing wrong as far as I can see.  A Windows installation will take about 20 GB to 30 GB so it's fine, and you will lose even more space for virtual memory to system management file, hibernation, system restore points file and so on.  Although the "30 GB in four days" is perhaps a little on the high side, considering that you have just installed Windows, there are a lot of household, creating files and so forth go on these days.

    With the help of disk cleanup to delete these files from system restore is a bad choice, because they are created to ensure the security of your system and allow you to recover from any problems that may require them.

    If disk space is as big a problem to get a bigger hard drive and let the system restore to do its job.

    I see, so mixture starts automatically as soon as you switch on your phone? It may be also that you have 'auto-update apps"enabled and the app opens when it is updated.
