Note that app.update.enabled was just removed from Nightly builds. This change will roll out in 63. To control updates you'll need to use the new enterprise policy system.

You could use autoconfig and set the values

 

app.update.enabled and app.update.auto

 

to false

But, how could it be possible?  I mean how to block the automatic updates?

Yes, they'll need to continue using Firefox 52 and not update.

Hello All,

    We currently use an NPAPI web phone (Zoiper). A number of our clients do not wish to switch over to IE preferring to continue using ESR 52.9 32 bit for the time being.

Will they need to disable updates currently set to the ESR channel to avoid prompts to update to 60.
