I've downloaded the Mozilla update several times on my laptop, but it keeps telling me to download it. Is there another step?

You may have some pending files left in the updates folder.

Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present.

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
