Why can't the devs have it update in the background or on next startup? I was in the middle of my work when I got this. Now I need to close everything and go through all the logins and 2FA again. ๐Ÿ˜ก

Chrome is much better at this, hands down. It has never interrupted me the way Firefox does during updates.

In my experience - having 2 different instances (e.g. if you want 2 icons on the taskbar) and one having updated.

Yup! Two different profiles running at the same time. As soon as I update one, I'll update the other one as well to avoid this.

Though whenever I forget, it's a pain!!

I think this could be handled differently. Interrupting the user's work half-way through is such a bad, bad form.
