I cannot get Firefox 5 Beta to check for updates using an account with no administrator privileges. Firefox 5 Beta downloaded an update (from Beta 2 to Beta 3), and now there is an Apply Update button in the About Firefox window that will not do anything, even after the update is properly applied from a different account with administrator privileges.

I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I typically use Firefox from an account with no administrator privileges and provide administrator credentials only when prompted to install or remove software.

Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.
You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present. 

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
