Did you extract the latest TBB into a new location or over the top of 
old one?

Either way, when you're sure the version you're using is x.x.x, & if you 
look in about:config for an entry that lists the tor browser version (& 
it's different), that's where it's getting the version #, & why it's 
still prompting for an update.
That may not be YOUR case, but it can happen if you copy part / all of 
the old pref.js file into a new version profile.  Then it copies over 
the old version #.  There could be other reasons.

If you did something like that & you KNOW you're using the latest 
version, you can either try extracting it again, or just change the 
about:config value.
