I'm a newbie using Debian and Deb 12 ships with Firefox ESR and I've decided to stick with it instead of the regular release, 'cause it breaks some extensions I have. However, I want to upgrade to the latest ESR version, how do I do it? I tried going to (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-esr), but the file for linux 64 bit is a .tar.bz2 file, which I have no idea how to compile.

I am trying to manage Firefox for company devices via Intune and would like to know if there is a way to uninstall all extensions/add-ons besides one or two approved ones.

I have been able to import the Firefox AMDX into Intune and have made a policy to install uBlock (which works without issue) and I can uninstall specific extensions/add-ins via their Extension ID (also without issue), however I can't see a way to uninstall all extensions. If I try and put a wildcard in the Extension ID field, nothing is affected.

We have a large number of devices with their own user-installed extensions so auditing this and then updating a policy manually with specific extension IDs may be quite painful.

Firefox 128 ESR-next Releases not reading firefox.cfg

My company has been using the same customized autoconfig.js without issue since last year's FF 115 esr release on our Ubuntu servers.

cat /opt/firefox-115.13.0esr/defaults/pref/autoconfig.js pref("browser.tabs.inTitlebar", 0); pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.sandbox_enabled", false); pref("pdfjs.annotationEditorMode", 1);

Now we are testing the 128 esr next releases with the same config and getting the failed to read the configuration file. please contact your system administrator error

cat /opt/firefox-128.1.0esr/defaults/pref/autoconfig.js pref("browser.tabs.inTitlebar", 0); pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.sandbox_enabled", false); pref("pdfjs.annotationEditorMode", 1);

If remove pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); or set it to 1, the error goes away, but our actual firefox.cfg does not get read and are configs are not present at all.

Switching to Firefox ESR with Microsoft Intune - Need Help with Password and Bookmark Sync Without Mozilla Accounts

Hello Mozilla Community,

I am an administrator in a company where we currently use Microsoft Intune for software distribution. We are currently deploying Firefox 76.0, which automatically updates itself and is no longer at version 76.0. However, we are planning to switch to the Firefox ESR version.

In our organization, we are not allowed to use Mozilla accounts for syncing passwords and bookmarks due to internal policies. Our goal is to make this transition as seamless as possible for our users, with as much automation as possible, while still ensuring that they can sync their passwords and bookmarks effectively without relying on Mozilla accounts.

Is there a way to achieve this, perhaps through a third-party tool or another method that integrates well with Intune and respects our privacy requirements?

Any guidance or suggestions to make this process smooth and user-friendly would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance for your help.
