How to get off the Firefox Beta channel
I always update Firefox from the ABOUT window. Currently I have 98.0.2 which is the current standard release.
Why then am I asked to update to 99.0 which is a BETA VERSION?
I don't need or want any BETA versions.
While I can dismiss the update reminders, on the next reboot it WILL install itself automatically.
How can I stop this and get myself OFF the Beta channel once and for all?

Firefox 99.0 was just Released on April 5, 2022 so it is the current Release.
Btw a version on one channel will not update to a build on another channel so it is not possible for a version on Release channel to update to a build on Beta channel.
Firefox 99.0 has been released April 5th and is no longer beta.
Actually the first Firefox 100.0b1 has been released.

thanks James and cor-el for your replies.
I can now install this version.
But my question still remains - how can I ensure that I'm not on the Beta channel?

thanks FredMcD - this is very helpful.
I checked - my channel is "release" , so that's good!
