Firefox for Enterprise Support Forum

Steps:

• Open Linux server via VNC
• Open Firefox
• Search the term "test"

Issue:

• The google result page doesn't fit into the window and has a horizontal scrollbar to see content on the right hand side

Note: I need my website to fit into browser properly at 100%(default) zoom itself for the purpose of automation because changing zoom level via selenium automation to press ctrl and minus 3 times causes unexpected behavior like even though value is filled in a textbox, it doesn't get sent in the API request payload. (Python 3.4.3, Selenium 3.12.0, GeckoDriver 0.31.0)

Versions:

• Ubuntu 14.04.6
• Firefox 91.13.0ESR
• VNC: Tight VNC Viewer 2.8.63 OR Real VNC Viewer 6.22.515

I'm trying to configure the "Extension Management" policy for firefox in my company. We have 14 addons to manage. using JSON this will end to a line of about 2500 characters.

when I try to copy the code into the gpo I get a message telling me the limit is 2048 characters.

Is there a way to baypass this limitation ?

thank you

Some users in my organization have been complaining about FireFox location protection since the update to 103.0.2. We would like an option to completely disable this "feature". Our users are complaining about having to individually make exceptions via the shield icon and selecting custom and unchecking all boxes does not work for our use case scenario. Is there any option to disable this completely or are there plans in future releases to allow us a disable feature (like you used to have) or is the only solution to switch our users to Chrome? Thanks

I work for the local County and we recently got a new content provider that allows for SSL Inspection (Barracuda 410) but it requires a certificate to be installed on every device to work. I am aware of Edge having a way to create a custom installer that would allow us to preinstall the proper certificate, but was wondering if Firefox had the same thing. I am also needing to know that if we push out the version of Firefox with the certificate preinstalled, would it auto import our user's data from their current install of standard Firefox?

Hello,

We have set up a GPO in our Active Directory environment for the install of Firefox which works great, however since at least version 90, we have had an issue where Firefox won't uninstall automatically when removing the computer object from the security group associated with the GPO. The box is ticked to "uninstall this application when it falls out of scope of management", which works for every other GPO we have created. The computer removes the assignment of the application, but does not then remove the application as it should.

Are you aware of this issue?

Thanks.

Hi,

i'm running Firefox on +70 Windows 10 PCs in three labs in a university. I've applied a computer configuration GPO with AppAutoUpdate enabled, BackgroundAppUpdate enabled and DisableAppUpdate disabled to my PCs, but it looks like i don't get automatic updates. In my labs i see some workstations have Firefox 108.0.1, but most workstations still have Firefox 107.0.1...

As my users can switch between workstations and labs, this leads to the annoying 'older version' message box when a user worked on a PC which already got the update and later uses another PC which didn't get the update. The users are also forced to create a 'new' profile then, which is quite problematic because of the size of the roaming profiles.

Any hints?

Every time you open Firefox, you will prompt old version bookmarks, history, and passwords, and you can't use them. Choose to opt out or create a new personal file. There are also prompts for the upgrade, and the downgrading version is unsuccessful pls help me

Hello all,

We must use a third party application which can only be installed in user home directory. We'd like to create a GPO to manage user settings, and configure a handler for this application.

Is it possible to use an environnement variable (for example %LOCALAPPDATA%) in the path of a handler ?

Thank you.

Currently we are setting our GPO to set users homepage to our intranet. The issue is in Firefox i can't see how to disable Open previous windows and tabs in the Genral Settings .

Is there a corresponding GPO for this setting? I have been unable to find it and searching hasn't yielded much help.

I'm on 102 ESR with up to date admx files. This would be super helpful!

Thanks!

Bonjour, Je travaille dans un musée. Nous utilisons Firefox sur des pc accessibles pour le public. Comment accéder à "aboutNetErrorCodes.js" pour l'éditer. Je souhaite remplacer le message par défaut de Firefox et rediriger vers une une page en local. Merci pour votre aide. Yves

We have several servers with Firefox installed and automatic updates enabled to include "When Firefox is not running". However, our security scans indicate that the version is out of date. We have to connect to the box and finish the updates. The current version is at 103.0.1 and the previous version was above 100 (failing to remember exact version). Is there a way to ensure that Firefox remains up to date without connecting to the server?

Hi, Background: a few months ago I had to redeploy the CA for a network I manage. I was able to do so and publish the new intermediate CA's cert via Active Directory. Since then, I've updated certs on webhosts with certs from the new CA. Whenever a user uses FF (version 91.12.0) to browse to a site with the newly signed cert, I get an error stating "sec_error_ocsp_old". I've been able to temporarily advise users to disable OCSP Validation in FF security settings, but I'd REALLY like to fix this.

Other browsers (Edge, Chrome, Opera) all load the sites without issue.

Using this the below article, I double checked the time settings on the CA, Webserver, and clients: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-time-errors-secure-websites

All the machines/VMs in question show the same time source, time, time zone, and sync interval.

I'm at a loss for what is happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to completely remove the address bar (url bar?) from Firefox 78 64bit. We had to update our Firefox at work and the old way of doing it through the userChrome.css file doesnt seem to work with the newer versions.

We have 50 workstations set up for certain jobs and the users roam as needed. Each workstation has two printers using different media. the printers are controlled by having two instances of Firefox with each having a user profile to use one printer or the other. In addition to printer settings we set a number of other profile settings such as silent printing etc.

Having a profile per user requires a great deal of setup work to allow different users to log in with authentication and to align the printers with the programs which will print to them.

A solution that would allow us to write a copy of a master profile to each new user via a program would be nearly perfect. Thank you,
