Is there a way to trigger a Firefox browser update through command line or script? I need to trigger an update across a few hundered computers and I can do this, but through command line or script automation. What is the command line syntax to do this, if there is any?

Thank you for your help

If you check the Windows Task Scheduler under Mozilla, you will find a task that runs every 7 hours to check for updates in the background (at least this is the default configuration for the regular release; ESR may vary).

It has a lot of parameters I don't understand, and don't know whether they are unique to my installation, but at the end, this switch seems to be the important part:

--backgroundtask backgroundupdate

You could experiment. Or wait for someone with more information.

Hilfreich?

I've moved the thread to Firefox for Enterprise to see if Mike Kaply has some suggestions.

Hilfreich?
