Summary

  • On Windows updates (when Firefox is installed into the default Program Files Directory) cannot currently be made without the User Account Control (UAC) dialog prompting for elevated permissions.
  • Firefox updates will be executed through a service named Mozilla Maintenance that will prevent UAC prompts to be displayed.
  • The purpose of this subfeature is to make updates available and easy to perform whether they are made by an administrator or by a limited user account.
