In the latest Firefox (regular) and FF ESR the updating options have been changed. Now the only "option" is "automatically install updates". If you try to tick the other option "check for updates but let you choose to install them" this warning box pops up "Firefox encountered an error and didn’t save this change. Note that setting this update preference requires permission to write to the file below. You or a system administrator may be able resolve the error by granting the Users group full control to this file.
Could not write to file: {$path}"
I assume this means that Portable FF and FF ESR will try to update itself from Mozilla automatically. What will this do to the portable setup? Can this be fixed so that the second option works properly again? I don't want auto-updating. Thanks.
