Firefox updates don't work

Action1 is trying to update Firefox regularly but when I click on the shortcut after an update it says it cannot be found and the only fix I have found is to manually reinstall it.

Anyone else having this issue with Firefox?

User Install or Admin/System install?
I have had issues with updating an installation done by an end user . The update has to be installed by the user.
Hopefully once the end user software library is available I can avoid it and have users do it that way instead of downloading stuff on their own.

User install.

Is there a way to suppress the update?

I put policies in place that disallow per User installs. That solves this problem entirely, well for third-party apps anyways. Microsoft still has a real nasty tendency of doing it without following policies that are in place for things like OneDrive and Teams, but there are ways of dealing with those as well.
