We are using Firefox as a digital signage player on kiosks and have built a solution that works with a specific version of Firefox. How can we prevent Firefox from upgrading as we have set every option to turn off auto-updates, however Firefox continues to update which brings down our signage network.

..... we have set every option to turn off auto-updates.

Does that include unchecking 'Use a background service to install updates' in Advanced => Update tab => under 'Show Update History' ?


Another thing to check :

Type in the address bar about:config (press Enter) (promise to be careful, if asked) Type and look for the preference : app.update.auto and make sure its value is set to false

You can also set this pref to an empty string to prevent Firefox from connecting to the update server.
