Mozilla today started rolling out Firefox 82.0.1, a new version that fixes a known bug where the Windows installer displays unnecessary reboot prompts on some systems after it finishes the installation.
"This would affect anyone running a full installer[.], provided they have at least one other Firefox installation in a directory other than the one that they just installed into," Mozilla engineer Molly Howell explained on the company's bug tracker.
Firefox 82.0.1 also uplifts a fix to the stable version for a known stability issue that has affected the web browser's users during the last two months.
You can update to Firefox 82.0.1 by going to Options -> Help -> About Firefox; the browser will automatically check for the new version and install it when available.
The latest Windows version of Mozilla's web browser is now also able to open new windows 10% quicker.
