I would prefer NOT to update Windows 10 past version 1703. My concern is, will Firefox continue to work for me as long as I'm running Windows 10 without installing future 'Feature Updates"?
Thanks for any input.

Yes.
Fire 750, bring back 250.

This may be a dangerous attitude because 1703 has eol april 2019
the magic number is 51 and you are probably part of it

Hi therube and Brummelchen. Thank you both for replying.
I know it may be dangerous Brummelchen not to allow Windows to Update, but I have reasons. Do YOU KNOW if Firefox will still work? therube says 'yes'. I really am looking for definitive answers and not guesses.

All you're gonna get here is an opinion. I doubt if the official Mozilla support fora a definite answer because "stuff" happens and Mozilla has no control over what Microsoft does with Windows.mozillaZine is an independent Mozilla community and advocacy site. We're not affiliated or endorsed by the Mozilla Corporation but we love them just the same.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Mine has wandered off and I'm out looking for it.

you already have your answers. my answer is related to: i dont care about browsers coming and going as long my operating base (here: windows) is current with all patches and more. software cant fix system flaws. but i cant say for the future - mozilla dropped xp and vista, why not consider dropping other systems with eol?
