I have a Windows XP, which is probably don't support new versions of Firefox. I turned auto-update off in Firefox settings, but it still trying to install update every time I open Firefox, loads it for several seconds and than shows an error. What else do I need to turn off to stop this?

Firefox 49+ supports only CPU with SSE2.

Well, how can I turn off auto-update to prevent this useless loading. I switched my settings to "don't check for auto-update", but it still trying to install it and shows this annoying error every time I open Firefox
