If you use Firefox, you probably know that, like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and other browsers, Firefox updates itself automatically in the background. However, you can speed things up by heading to Menu > Help > About Firefox. The browser will check for updates, download the latest release, and offer you the option to restart itself to apply available updates.
Firefox is available on Windows 10, 11, macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux. Windows users can get the browser from the official website or using the Microsoft Store via this link. By the way, Mozilla is the only mainstream browser still offering support for now-deceased Windows versions, namely Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. Recently, Mozilla confirmed its plans to support Firefox on those systems beyond the previously set deadlines.
