Version 113.0 first offered to Release channel users on May 9, 2023
Bigger update with new features
Many Security fixes (6 rated High) ---> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2023-16/
No issues with install W10
Firefox is still a very good browser but I switched to BRAVE. I'd like to see the features that BRAVE has in Firefox.
Sounds like Brave has improved, since the launch a few years ago, when I last tested it. What are its best features? Maybe make a thread about Brave & share what you know with the community?

Brave blocks trackers and ads. Especially useful with YouTube. No ads during YouTube videos.

You know how to update it? Click on application menu (the 3 little horizontal lines near top right of browser), click on 'help', click on 'about Firefox' and it will check for updates from there.

Many new features & security updates & --> ending support for many older OS (excerpt) Version 115.0, first offered to Release channel users on July 4, 2023 In January 2023, Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 and Windows 8. As a consequence, this is the last version of Firefox that users on those operating systems will receive. Users on Windows 7 and Windows 8 will automatically be migrated to the ESR 115 version of Firefox so that they continue to receive important security updates. Visit this Firefox support article for more information. Similarly, this is the last major version of Firefox that will support Apple macOS 10.12, 10.13, and 10.14. Users on those operating systems will be migrated to the ESR 115 version of Firefox so that they continue to receive important updates. Visit this Firefox support article for more information. We want to extend a special thank you to all of the new Mozillians who contributed to this release of Firefox! Security Updates 5 of the 14 security updates are rated as High No issues to report post update on W10

I really wish they'd let me turn off the idiotic "Update available" garbage.
If I want it, I know where to look.

Tools --> Settings --> Firefox Updates --> Check for updates but let you choose to install them. that seems to be about as good as it gets I like to keep the security patches up to date, any other changes do not rate the update if it is working on my PC
