Try to run the Firefox program once as Administrator (right-click: Run as Administrator) for that user.

If files already have been downloaded then you need to remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You can delete active-update.xml and maybe updates.xml as well if present. 

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