| The add-on hotfix is a tool used to ship changes to Firefox users that don't need to be distributed under the normal update mechanism. Examples of this are configuration changes that don't justify a point release, or changes that need to be pushed to users in older versions of Firefox.

| | |
| Hotfix updates are automatically pushed to all Firefox users (starting from version 11).
