I find it incredibly disruptive every time this page comes up and it’s never completely capable of restoring my tabs. Is there any way to disable it so that it will instead update when I choose to restart Firefox?

    If Firefox is using its own updater then it will notify that update is available and can even download it while it’s running. But the updater doesn’t normally apply the update (i.e. replace the program files on disk) until you restart Firefox so you can dismiss the update notification (not the one pictured in op) no worries.

    But if some other updater mechanism such as package manager is handling the updates then you can run into issues if it’s stupid enough to replace the files while Firefox is running.
