The "point" releases on beta Firefox releases such as Firefox 58 (now on beta 7) comes out twice a week.

How about on the released version of Firefox...I have Firefox 57...might i expect to see point releases between now and the time 58 is released? And how often might that occur?
For security updates, there are no fixed schedule, they are just released as soon as a flaw is detected, there are versions that can go clean without in-the-middle patches.
Josey has a point there, normally, major releases are between 6 or 8 weeks. I wouldn't worry too much about that and leave on automatic, the only time I had to manually upgrade Firefox was when they were doing the jump from 32 bits to 64 bits, to avoid having the browser installed in the wrong location.
Thanks guys for the feedback! Good to know...Only thing is...if i set it back to automatic update, how will i know when it does get updated?
Although i imagine, i would read about it here...LOL But i was wondering...
Though i was thinking...even if auto updated, would it not have to ask me to restart the browser in order to complete the update?
I guess i would just kind of like to know when it happens![]()
