Hi,

We previously deployed Firefox ESR with auto update disabled. We were using the Pref.js file within %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\.. folder. We have now decided to move ahead with keeping the auto-update enabled and would like to leverage firefox admx templates. Within the GPO, we have enabled the below GPO settings:

Application.Autoupdate = Enabled browser.search.update = Enabled DisableUpdate = Disabled

However, the below auto update setting does not get enabled. I dont see any other GPO setting specific to it other than the ones I have listed above.

Use a background Service to install updates

Question: Does settings within pref.js takes precedence over GPO(s) or am I missing any additional GPO setting.

Any suggestions..

Hi Mike,

Unfortunately, 'The background service should be enabled by default' is not the case. If you have an Pref.js file sitting under %appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\.. folder with the below line within it, it appears to take precedence over the auto-update GPO settings I mentioned above, for this specific update setting under browser :(

user_pref("app.update.service.enabled", false);

Anyways, thank you for clarifying on Mozilla not having a specific GPO setting for this at the moment.

See:

In Firefox 63+ you can check the about:policies#active page to see whether policies are active.

The background service should be enabled by default. We currently don't have policy to manage that specifically.

> user_pref("app.update.service.enabled", false);

I guess someone unchecked it.

I'll look into adding a policy for this.
