No previous issues using the restart/install to update Firefox option. Today, attempting an update to 58.0, my computer froze. After many unsuccessful attempts, task manager was opened and the update was killed. The machine remained largely unresponsive and I could not shut it down without holding the power button. To my surprise, upon reboot Firefox was updated to 58.0 and appears functional. Not at all the way I like to update. Win 10 Pro on Dell Precision 5510.

That was a fluke event. Firefox doesn't run with enough "permissions" to be able to crash an operating system.

No other Windows 10 users have reported that type of issue with the Firefox 58 update.
