Rapid-release updates sometimes require Admin

We have Firefox rapid-release (not ESR) deployed on Windows 10 across our Enterprise where users do not have local Administrator privileges.

Occasionally the rapid-release updates fail to be installed, with the updater requiring Admin privileges to execute. For example, today a user's Firefox 111.0.1 was asking for elevate to update to 112.0.

The IT team user accounts also are non-admin, but we have not run into this, and judging from the lack of support tickets on this I would say most of our users are not running into this either.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid this, or troubleshoot further?

I think it would be better if this were opened as a bug in bugzilla for the install team to take a look. Would you mind opening a bug here

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox&component=Installer

and letting me know the bug number? I'll reach out to the install team.
