Stop Updates!!!

How do I stop these recurring update notices? Every 3 seconds. I'll update when I am ready as this current one does not affect me at all. For a while I fell for it, stopped what I was doing and did the ridiculous update, it still continues! I can move on to a different non-Mozilla browser if I have too. Return the option to not update and/or do it manually. FF127.0.2

Hmmmm, no answers? I've noticed quite a few wanting to update when they choose. Why not give the option back to not update? If it isn't a security update like the last one, I don't need anything included in that update. My machines, my choice!

Some old updates were really good. I miss old versions.

These constant "update available" popups are so annoying that I'm considering changing browsers.

I've sent over an hour trying to find a solution to this problem (or virus).

Is there way of stopping these popups in the desktop version????
