Why does the GPO setting for "Disable Developer Tools = disabled" not take effect when mozilla.cfg "devtools.policy.disabled = true"?

Mike Kaply beantwortet
Ed

Our organization currently runs FirefoxESR versions and uses mozilla.cfg to control some lock down that are not available using the GPO. Below is the setting in question:

     - mozilla.cfg 
            lockPref("devtools.policy.disabled", true);
     - GPO deviation setting
            Computer > Policies > Admin Templates > Mozilla > Firefox
                    Disable Developer Tools = Disabled

When the computer updates the policies and users launch Firefox, Developer Tools is missing as an option. Below are the results after gpupdate /force:

    - about:config
            devtools.policy.disabled > locked > true
    - Registry (regedit) 
            HKLM\Software\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox
                  DisableDeveloperTools = 0

THANKS Everyone!

I'm a little confused by what you are trying to accomplish.

Are you trying to disable developer tools via Autoconfig and enable them via policies?

Because you have DisableDeveloperTools set to 0.
