Yep.
Backups are essential. That's why I use ACRONIS TI every week.
These are the 2 updates that failed miserably...& froze the 32 bit PC...
KB4099633 & KB4103718.
The MRT installed O.K.

Re: FF 59.0.3 is not releasing memory?
The only ones I installed are the .NET patch and KB4103712 (security only version).
Both installed OK, but before my last post I noticed a problem with... hang on, I may have it again, gotta check some things.
As for backups, yeah. I usually end up with 2-3 a month.
Ok here's the deal. I'm not sure about this at all...yet.
Three services:
Diagnostic Policy Service
Diagnostic Service Host
Diagnostic System Host
Before my previous post's actions. I had a new problem. The Diagnostic Service Host (set to manual) was stopped and unable to be started. This threw up an error or warning in Event Viewer (don't remember the number).
The problem caused it to take forever for my internet connection to come up. (Normally it comes up in like 2 seconds)
Anyways, that's where I'm at now. When I was having this problem, I also had the KB4103712 update installed, from May 8th. After I started getting this error, I restored to a May 02 backup, and started over.
I know this is confusing, but I'm in the middle of researching it.

We the willing, led by the unknowing, have been doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have been doing so much, for so long, with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.

Re: FF 59.0.3 is not releasing memory?
MS updates are a mess at the moment & have been causing problems for quite a while.
According to Woody & the crew, (eg; The Patch Lady), unless you really need to update......then don't.

Re: FF 59.0.3 is not releasing memory?
Yeah, I know. Problem is I'd probably have to remove the updates for like 3-5 months back.
Before the May update, I was having the problem where after browsing, even closing FF would not release the memory. That issue started like 2-3 months ago.
Like I mentioned in OP, it's gotta be either NoScript, or the Windows updates. Unfortunately, I don't like running without NoScript or the Windows updates. :/
