Many times when I upgrade the system under Linux, firefox pops up a window suggesting to restart the program in order to make effective all the changes.
When I ignore that windows because of an urgent duty in a second time I'm not able to find it again.
Of course I know it's always possible to exit and restart it manually; in Linux to kill the process with pkill firefox && sync && firefox &
, with or without a brutal -9
.
In a similar way in Windows it is possible to use the Task Manager...
What I was searching for is an internal solution, a clean one, possibly system independent. How to force to restart firefox in a clean way ?
ps> It is possible that when updated external third parties programs firefox will not prompt for restarting, even if it should be recommended.
