Workplace administrator managing home computer Firefox account
Because of syncing Firefox between various devices, my workplace administrator is now managing my home computer browser. What is the solution?

Can you elaborate what's the issue?
Could this be your issue?
Your organization has disabled the ability to change some options

TyDraniu, I synced my Firefox account on my work computer, my home PC, and my phone. My workplace allowed it at the time, now they don't. Now my home PC has a note at the top of my settings page: Your browser is being managed by your organization. I can't change some settings to my liking. Whatever setting that's blocked at the workplace is also blocked at home. Would I have to create a whole new account and use that from now on, maybe a different account entirely just at the workplace, and not sync that with any personal devices? Thank you
FredMcD, thanks for the leads, will read through those. I might have to delete my home PC account and start over with that. My android account doesn't seem to be affected. Turns out through the help of a computer remote service company that I'm also the administrator of my home PC, but I don't know how to act as one, lol.
Ok. That note has nothing to do with syncing or your workplace. More likely it's due to your security software. Please enter about:policies in the URL bar and check what active policies do you have.
