If it gets too bad, I suppose everyone still forced to use SlopilotOS for whatever reason will have to use Powershell to download Firefox. That is, until the SlopilotShell rebrand comes along.

Until they introduce Copilot in Powershell so that when you try do D/L another browser, it will chime in and explain you that you should first give a serious try to EdgePilot because it's so much better and you won't be disappointed! Here: I D/L its premium version instead of FF as you were trying to do, and I give you one month for free! \o/.
