Firefox for Enterprise Community Forum

I'm trying to get the Enterprise Release Notes for Firefox 148 and 149. They seem to be the only ones missing from 141 to 151 inclusive. It appears the URL for the notes is in the format https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-enterprise-###-release-notes/, where ### is the version. For these two versions, I get a "Page Not Found" error.

I have tried finding them through the Firefox Release Calendar (https://whattrainisitnow.com/calendar/). If you click on the link to expand previous releases and then click on a release version number, the page that comes up has links to the three different versions of release notes. Enterprise shows a link for the two missing versions in the same format as I have noted above.

I have also tried https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox-enterprise/whats-new-firefox-enterprise and it lists quite a few versions but 148 and 149 are missing in action.

we are using firefox std version in more than 15000 machines in our organisation, recentlty we migrated to all machines to ESR version, but now we are getting escallation, the application working very slow and not opening sometimes

I don't know if feature requests should be made here or elsewhere, but both chrome & edge have policies to force safe search in google (and bing in edge) in addition to a policy to force restricted mode in youtube, so I wish these get added to firefox.

Also, there is no policy to block firefox task manager (about:processes). I don't know if it's a security vulnerability to add it or not.

We are managing Firefox settings using Intune via Imported ADMX templates.

We are managing Extension Settings via 'Extension Management (JSON on one line)' which works fine for our force installs, force removals etc.

We have noticed that some users have installed 3rd party extensions which create the ExtensionSettings key in the registry with the 3rd party extension details.

The issue we see if when ExtensionSettings exists as a REG_SZ or REG_MULTI_SZ under `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox` it is then ignored if the `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla\Firefox\ExtensionSettings` key exists.

Is there a setting we can use to have these settings merged by Firefox or have the REG_SZ/REG_MULTI_SZ take priority or is the only way to ensure enterprise policy continues to work we need to migrate our extension settings into the key rather than string?

Thanks!

Is there a blessed solution to the problem above? I'm sure we're not alone, but our end users are not admins. God forbid... So the official statement of "enter admin credentials" is not a plausable solution on managed systems. Providing a Reinstall Firefox on the users' selv service store is something we can do, but users are usually not fond of losing browser data. (I do konw about Firefox account to sync/restore) My question is more like as the problem roots back to permission problems, what would be the proper command(s) to fix permissions? I can run commands on the end users' comptuers in the background, as root/system user, or even as them of course. Thanks

Hello,

I had seen this topic : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1489702, i'am using a GPO to deploy an Lockself (password manager) extension on Firefox 152 on all computers in my company. I wanted to pin to navbar just this extension, because users will ask at first time where is it. I have changed the JSON to pin to navbar :

{

 "{ca613ee6-4211-4ae2-aa3c-d29608461d11}": {
   "installation_mode": "force_installed",
   "install_url": "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/lockself-password-manager/latest.xpi",
   "updates_disabled": false,
   "default_area": navbar
 }

}

But when i reload the GPO on a test machine this GPO isn't applied.

So it seems the bug isn't solved ?

Thanks

Hi all,

Firefox 140.10.2esr Windows 11

Opened Firefox this morning and it said I was using an old version of Firefox and it couldn't load my profile. I have always used the esr version.

I had a look at the compatibility.ini file under my profile and it had version 150.xx. Is that a bug with the last update?

To recover I backed up my profile then changed the compatibility version to the version of Firefox I am using. I was able to load my profile and while all my bookmarks and settings are there, my saved credentials are not. The key4.db and logins.json file are both still under my profile folder, they just don't seem to be recognised; no errors. Viewing the logins.json shows my encrypted credentials.

Does anyone know what is going on and how to resolve?

thanks

Co żeście spieprzyli w tej przeglądarce? Claude AI zawiesza całą przeglądarkę. Od kilku wersji coś jest fundamentalnie zchrzanione bo nawet Pikvm nie serwuje obrazu. Do tego popsuliście coś z profilami, że nie można wrócić do starej wersji przeglądarki. Cała masa błędów. Na siłę próbujecie udaremnić działanie wtyczek blokujących szpiegowanie użytkowników?

Hallo, my setup is some server (keycloak) with mTLS needing keypairs just for allowance for the machines in the enterprise. But as far as i know, i need to setup personal keypairs for the users, not just the machines. How do i push a ".p12" keypair into the browsers trust stores? Is there a way via GPOs? As far as i have read the https://firefox-admin-docs.mozilla.org/reference/policies/, there is no support for ".p12" files?

The only way i got told from AI is via a script. If i could just stuff that ".p12" file into some place in the GPO, i would be perfectly happy... (?)

Hello,

support.mozilla.org/kb/website-translation says, when you do not have downloaded translation packs, parts of the packs will be downloaded when you first use the translation function.

My questions about this feature: - How does this work exactly? - Will the words from the website which i try to translate be collected and "downloaded"? - How are the translation language packs parted? - What information will be used and sent to servers/cloud to request these parts of the translation packs?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best Regards

Bjoern

I know nothing about the dev options for Internet settings and minor turned on and it says the remote server is set to production. No flipping idea what this is. Can somebody please help me?

There is a enterprise download for windows and Apple but i do not see a download option for Linux from this site. https://www.firefox.com/en-CA/browsers/enterprise/

But there is a download for the ESR version from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

Is there a reason why Linux is not on the main enterprise download page ?

We need to disable the VPN functionality in Firefox for macOS in our environment using a configuration profile deployed via our Jamf Pro VPN. I have done internet searches and found suggestions to use either a custom upload or external application configuration profile payload to disable the VPN functionality but have not been able to find a configuration that works.

Can you advise

This is a personal computer, not associated with any organization. I do not believe it to be necessary on this browser. If it is, please advise. If it is not necessary, please tell me how to disable,deactivate, or remove it. This message only appears in firefox. I don't know where it came from and therefore I do not trust it being there. If it was placed there BY fire fox, also please advise.
