How I update my Firefox Developer Browser a.k.a Firefox Aurora

Are you been stuck with updating your Firefox Developer Browser/ Firefox Aurora, then you are at the right place.
Hey there, I am Gautham and We will be looking at a way on how to update Firefox Developer Browser.

I've been using Min browser for a while and I faced some bugs after Its recent updates. So I got mad with it and switched to Firefox Developer Browser a.k.a Firefox Aurora. Until now I haven't faced much of an issues. If you want to see how to install it and have a doubt on it, There is a post on it

So getting to the topic, Download the new version of Firefox Aurora. Extract the files on any location. Now open the /opt directory in Terminal. For that, You can just open terminal and type cd /opt.

Before continuing, Please read this : We cannot remove or change files in /opt directory without permissions so we will be using terminal to change files.

As we opened the /opt directory in terminal, We will remove the firefox folder. Remember to close your Firefox aurora browser.

Now the last command : sudo cp -rp [your_firefox_developer_updated_files_location.Inside_there_is_firefox_named_file] /opt

This step worked for me and I believe will work for you, If you are facing any problems, Feel free to Ask.
