Automate the updates for your Firefox web browser

After having discovered Firefox, the Mozilla Foundations internet browser, you would have certainly realized that plug-ins are available for it which can be rather useful. Simply, the program is able to adapt to your needs making for a happy user.

But, like with any application, and even more so in the case of Firefox, updates are regularly released with the goal of adding new functions or correcting bugs. With Firefox, you can manually install these, or configure it so that they are automatically done.

Firstly you will need to open the Firefox program. Once this has been done, select the “Tools” menu and then choose “Options”.

A new window will open. Select “Advanced”, and then from the sub-section “Update”. From here, by clicking a wide range of boxes, it is possible to activate the search of updates form the program, the additional modules and the integrated search engines. The updates, when available, can be either displayed to the user to automatically installed. Finally, the button at the bottom gives you access to the history of all applied updates which have been applied since the installation of the software.
