What Mozilla also needs to address is the fact that Firefox update is now totally broken on a "normal" user account in windows, it will not even inform you that you are out of date. Before they changed to the "rolling release" model, it worked fine, hasnt worked since 4.0... So now there is going to be a non-insignificant number of windows users stuck on firefox 5 6 7 ... forever.
- kijin 15y agoIs that number really "non-insignificant"? Most Windows users I know are always logged into administrator accounts. I myself use the administrator account on my home PC, even though I should know better. Well, at least I pay attention to UAC dialogs. I actually like how Firefox updates itself. On a multi-user PC, updating Firefox updates every user's Firefox. Not so with Chrome.
- throwaway64 15y agothere is still no reason that updates cant be applied like every other piece of software.
