Firefox will sometimes stop me from making a new tab and force me to update, is there a way to bypass this screen? Just to be clear I don't want to remove auto-updates, just stop it from forcing me.

Today I was writing something and it made me update. Meaning I had to stop working on the thing I was writing so I could close the browser. Then when it updated it deleted all my toolbars whyyyyyy.

Ah, hmm, maybe that's just how it works on Linux and macOS then. I was wondering, because Windows doesn't support replacing files while they're opened in a process, so I guess makes sense that it needs the restart upfront...
