I tried downloading it via the platform without exiting Firefox.
It just showed "Done" at the end.

But I noticed it's still v95 so I exited Firefox and restarted it. Still 95...
By that point the platform's updater claimed there are no new versions.
Only once I manually downloaded the installation I finally got v96.

If you leave an app running, the update will not work correctly.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Ideally it should. It doesn't at present.

The platform's automatic app closing is on platform exit. It's not part of the updater or the PA.c Installer.
