I have imported the ADMX and tried to add an extension but it does not appear. So I imported the admx and this is working because I have another custom oma-uri that sets the home pages.

Here is what I have for my custom oma-uri to try and get the 1password extension added to FireFox. It is coming back with an error, Any recommendations? Name: Extensions_Install OMA-URI: ./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Firefox~Policy~firefox~Extensions/Extensions_Install Data Type: String Value: <enabled/> <data id=”Extensions” value=”1\https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1password-x-password-manager”/>

Dear Forum,

Maybe this has been already asked but i keep getting the quite opposite when searching.

is there a way that i can save passwords, for autofill purposes, for specific websites in Firefox using GPO?.

I have 4 computers, that are currently deployed with Firefox and all 4 should be able to login to a specific website with a given username and password. I would like to set the username and password for them stored in the Firefox password manager and let it autofill it for them when going to the given website.

Or should i do this using the created shortcut they received, deployed to their systems using GPO?

Thank you in advanced.

Configuration via Windows GPO -> exclude second Firefox installation

Hi,

we want to switch our Firefox configuration from file-based (policies.json) to GPO-based. We rolled out the GPO on some test clients and it worked like a charm.

But... It shows that there are some clients which need a second firefox installation for a special purpose, which is not allowed to enter the internet or update itself.

The file-base configuration can handle these to different installations with two differend policies.json files.

Is there a way to accomplish this scenario with the use of GPOs? The GPO-base configuration seems to be global for every client.

At this moment i don't see a solution for our problem. Do you see one?

What does pref.browser.language.disable_button.remove do?

I am reviewing my user.js and pref.js files in anticipation of deploying policy settings in GPO. As a part of the review, I am trying to document what each of the preferences in those files actually do, in order to be able to see in the future why a setting was set the way it was.

I am presently at the preference "pref.browser.language.disable_button.remove". Based on the name of the preference, I would think that if set to true, it would disable the remove button in the Webpage Language Settings window. (Hamburger menu -> Settings -> General -> Language -> Choose your preferred language for displaying pages)

When I set it to true, it does not disable the remove button but when I use the remove button, the preference is set to false.

Am I misunderstanding the purpose of this preference or is there more to using this preference than just setting its value in about:config?

Also, I see there are a number of other preferences that contain disable_button but that only one, "pref.privacy.disable_button.view_passwords", has a GPO policy for setting. I would expect that these preferences containing disable_button would all work in a similar way just each for a different button in the Firefox GUI.

If it matters, I'm running Firefox 115.3.1esr 64-bit en-ca on Windows 10.

Hi there,

We would like to disable ECH on our browsers as it is interfering with our Anti-virus Website blocks. I have identified the settings that need to be changed in about:config and was able to configure 2 of them to be controlled via a registry key but was not able to for another 3 as their keys should be placed in a different Key in the registry. I have searched all over but cannot identify the name for this Key.

The settings I need to manage are in the image. I was able to configure the settings beginning with network.dns but I am not sure how to manage the settings beginning with security.tls.ech

Any help would be much appreciated
