Mozilla FireFox Updates
I deployed Firefox as a Win32 App using Intune. While I was able to enable automatic update for Edge Chromium and Google Chrome for MEM managed Windows workstations using Administrative Templates in ...

It might be already enabled when you install FireFox, but you have to maintain this way for out of box tools. Some organizations tend to use PatchMyPC or Scappman, these 3rd party tools eliminate the long packaging process.

I'm in a similar situation. I don't have a Win32App for Firefox, but I deployed a device configuration profile for Firefox to apply the following configurations for both system and user on devices that have Firefox installed:
1. Background Updater - Enabled
2. Application Autoupdate - Enabled
I've tested this on 2 separate profiles, under Admin template and by importing ADMX files, per Mozilla's instructions. Intune says it succeeded but I'm still seeing vulnerabilities on our PCs through our Vulnerability Management tool. Firefox can definitely auto-update like other browsers and I have seen it worked on Apple devices through our other MDM tool with plist configurations.

Have you had any success with configuration that works with updating Firefox while stale or not in use. I have those two settings applied to a workstation of mine and it does not seem to update Firefox.
