    Chrome does this just fine on windows. It just updates in the background so the only thing you need to do is (re)open chrome and it’s done. Firefox doesn’t, and waits until you try to launch it to update. On my laptop where I use FF infrequently makes it’s startup time about 30 seconds basically every time I open it.
