Hi We have had FF ers for some time. The old "no longer employed" sccm manager had the 64 bit version install in the x86 dir. We are now trying to use Qualys for patching. How can i move the 12k users bookmarks to the correct install path so Qualys can update when needed. Thanks TJ

Hello,

Firefox 102.6.0esr (x64) Firefox 108.2.0 (x64)

after implementing the bookmarks (JSON) setting by GPO policy, it turns out that an entry for Bookmarks is created in the registry and not ManagedBookmarks, which causes bookmarks not to appear in the bookmarks bar. When I manually rename a registry entry from Bookmarks to ManagedBookmarks, the bookmarks appear properly. Please let me know if I'm doing something wrong or if there really is a problem reported by me.

Yours sincerely Bart

Been managing bookmarks for users through Intune, but for some reason on my HP Elitebook 840 I keep getting an error "Unable to parse JSON for ManagedBookmarks" I haven't changed anything to the bookmarks before swapping to the HP laptop from a Dell 5410. I have double-checked GitHub for the proper string for bookmarks and everything looks to be correct as well as submitting a support case with Microsoft who checked it and say it is something on Firefox's side that needs fixing.

I am also constantly getting this unknown extension setting. Not sure why I have this or where I can remove it.

ExtensionSettings {"firefoxhpsureclicksecurebrowsing@bromium.com":{"installation_mode":"blocked"},"firefoxhpwolfsecurityextension@bromium.com":{"installation_mode":"blocked"}}

I am pushing out bookmarks company-wide through Intune on users Laptops. I spoke with Microsoft support and the configuration policy is created correctly and I followed Firefox's support page in creating them. It seems that the new JSON script that tells Firefox what bookmarks is unable to parse.

Anyone know if Firefox had an update that prevents intune from sending the JSON file?

Error message given through firefox.

"Unable to parse JSON for ManagedBookmarks"

Firefox Bookmarks GPO Using JSON

I am using the most recent Firefox ADMX templates and I am unable to get bookmarks to show up using JSON. I have verified that the GPO is applied, and there is a registry key being created under the user's profile, however it is not the right registry key.

The key it is creating: SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\Bookmarks Type: Reg_Multi-SZ


If I rename this registry key from Bookmarks to ManagedBookmarks, the bookmarks show up and work as intended.

I do not see "ManagedBookmarks" in the GPO anywhere. If I am not setting "ManagedBookmarks" in the correct location then please show me where I am supposed to set them. I am tempted to just modify the ADMX template and have it create the registry key "ManagedBookmarks" instead of "Bookmarks" as that seems to work, but I can't imagine this is how the devs wanted this.

Hi, I would like to migrate my 5000 users over onto FF. One of the requirements is to preload bookmarks for these users, something we can do with Chrome already. We are running on Windows devices and use an ADMX and an XML (listing the bookmarks and folders) to push this policy via InTune. I can't find any means of replicating it in FF... is it possible?
