Hello,

I installed Firefox 128.2.0esr. I set the next parameters in GPO for settings DNSOverHTTPS: "DNSOverHTTPS": {

                      "Enabled":  true,

"ProviderURL": "https://safe.dot.dns.yandex.net/dns-query", "Locked": true, "Fallback": true }. But when checking via https://www.cloudflare.com/ru-ru/ssl/encrypted-sni/#results I get (screenshot in attachment). As you can see from the screenshot, DNS and SNI did not receive the coveted check marks. Secure DNS We weren’t able to detect whether you were using a DNS resolver over secure transport. Contact your DNS provider or try using 1.1.1.1 for fast & secure DNS. DNSSEC Attackers cannot trick you into visiting a fake website by manipulating DNS responses for domains that are outside their control. TLS 1.3 Nobody snooping on the wire can see the certificate of the website you made a TLS connection to. Secure SNI Anybody listening on the wire can see the exact website you made a TLS connection to.

In my browser / about:config: network.trr.mode = 2 network.trr.uri = https://safe.dot.dns.yandex.net/dns-query

In 128.2.0esr there is no protection against ESNI interceptions and ECH is enabled by default? Or is the problem that the DNS provider does not support the technology from Mozilla? Or what other settings we need use (via GPO)?

Thank you.

Dear Mozilla Firefox Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

We manage a network of workstations that frequently utilize the Mozilla Firefox browser. Recently, we have encountered a situation where many of our systems are showing vulnerabilities due to pending browser updates. The updates are being installed successfully; however, users often neglect to restart the browser, which is crucial for completing the update process and ensuring security.

To address this, we would like to inquire if there is an existing Group Policy that can be configured to automatically notify users when they need to restart their Firefox browser to apply the latest updates. Such a feature would greatly assist us in maintaining the security integrity of our workstations and ensuring that users are made aware of the importance of restarting their browsers when prompted.

If this functionality is not currently available, we would appreciate any insights on potential workarounds or future plans to incorporate such a feature.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your response.

Hello there, Could some please tell me how to find the path of the history containing folder in firefox115.18.Oesr? I mean something like: /Users/<votre_nom_utilisateur>/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<nom_du_profil>/places.sqlite

Firefox version

   128.2.0esr (64-bit)

Operating system

   Windows 10/Windows11 23H2 Septembre patch

Hello everyone,

maybe you can tell me/explain what the problem could be.

In our company we had Firefox version 115.14.0esr (64-bit) and then we updated to 128.2.0esr (64-bit).

Since version 128.2 ESR we have experienced problems in Firefox when trying to access DNN+ pages (with login). https://www.dnn.de/sport/regional/dresdner-sc-denkt-ueber-uebernahme-der-margon-arena-nach-C3IC74MZ6FE43AKGCZJSKUXA3I.html

In Firefox the content is cut off, in Edge it is displayed normally.

With Edge and Firefox 115.14.0esr the page is displayed normally. No AdBlock installed.

In developer mode I see the errors in the versions, so it shouldn't be that.

Cross-source (cross-origin) request blocked: The same-source rule prohibits reading the external resource on https://gum.criteo.com/sid/json?origi...AAAAAAAA&gdpr=1. (Reason: CORS request failed). Status code: (null).

Cross-source (cross-origin) request blocked: The same-source rule prohibits reading the external resource on https://id5-sync.com/api/config/prebid. (Reason: CORS request failed). Status code: (null).

Any ideas? Thank you very much! :)

How to disable Firefox add-ons in order to block to install temporary extensions. I am generating policies via Firefox Policy generator. {

 "name": "myconfig",
 "time": "2025-12-14T13:17:27.479Z",
 "configuration": {
   "arrayfields": {},
   "checkboxes": {
     "BlockAboutAddons": true,
     "BlockAboutConfig": true,
     "BlockAboutProfiles": true
   },
   "input": {},
   "textareas": {},
   "select": {}
 }

}

Cree una política para filtrado web donde bloquea por ejemplo páginas de juegos de azar, sin embargo, varias páginas las está dejando abrir, para contrarestar eso, por medio de indicadores bloquee las páginas que deja pasar pero aún así está dejando abrir ciertas páginas, por ejemplo betplay, para solventar eso apliqué una política de filtrado web, para esto importé el admx de Mozilla, sin embargo en Mozilla todavía está dejando entrar a esa página.

Dear Sir or Madam,

We are experiencing an issue with various users on our terminal servers whereby websites open very slowly when using Firefox. When I access the website using Edge from the same user session, everything works very quickly. We have already tried creating a new profile in Firefox and clearing the cache, but without success. Could you please help us?

The operating system used is Windows Server 2022.

We use Firefox ESR in our environment today, Is it possible to have a policy that would display "update required" message to end-users, or have it automatically update without users opening the browsers.

Hello. When navigating YouTube on the main page, if you simply Hover the mouse over "Previous page (Alt+Left)", then SOMETIMES strange music or some strange video plays. Important: there is no video of this unknown video, just the sound plays. Other browser tabs are closed, only the YouTube tab is open. I use Firefox ESR, since I have Windows 7, I use the latest version of Firefox ESR. The extensions that are installed are Ublock origin and uvpn. I don't know if it could have been infected by an unknown virus? I scanned with ESET, installed Comodo, but the problem was not solved. I would really like you to sort this out. Please don't ignore me. I want to understand what's going on. I am open to new questions on this topic that will help resolve this situation.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to uninstall an extension using a GPO, but it's not working.

I've placed a GPO on the user's OU and configured the ID to be removed in the User-Part of that GPO. I previously retrieved the ID using about:debugging.

But nothing happens; the extension isn't removed. (Logoff/Logon/reboot/gpupdate /force .....)

128.11.0esr (64-Bit)

KeePassXC-Browser Extension

The GPOs for Edge and Chrome have the same function. Enter the ID there, and the extension is reliably removed.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Michael

I would like access to Firefox Stories but the policy setting for FirefoxHome Stories is false. How do I get to these settings to change the false to true?

Until about a week ago the stories showed up on the New Tab. There is a side section on New Tab for customizing and the section had an option to see the stories. Now that section has no reference to the option.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

i am not a computer knowledgeable person, as I am 84 years old, and do not understand or know how to make the changes that are constantly being made. Please help me make sure everything is set up correctly for the current rules and that the computer is secure, as I discuss monetary issues with many of my clients. When directions are offered, I often find it impossible to follow them, as whatever they tell me does not show up, or is not found on my screen. I have a relatively new computer, maybe a year old, so i am sure the problem is with me, and not the computer.

Thanks for any help you can offer. From past experience, please have someone with lots of patience, or some one that can just et it set up right. Thanks, Bette :>)

Hi,

Looking to upgrade our org to ESR 128.2.0 due to compatibility issues - most notably, embedded PDFs not loading due to Promise.withResolvers() not being implemented on versions prior to 121.

Curious to know if there are any issues or concerns with upgrading manually/pushing this version out - would like to ensure we don't cause further issues in attempting to resolve one.

I've been tasked with removing Firefox from all Windows workstations in our enterprise environment. Our users don't have local admin, so when they install Firefox, it is installed in the user's profile.

I've just installed Firefox 143.0.1 in my own user profile for testing purposes. However, when I attempt to uninstall, either from Control Panel or by running %localappdata%\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe manually, UAC prompts for elevation, even though I installed without elevating.

Is this a known issue? If yes, is there a workaround?

Thanks!

Firefox is used on Windows 11 Enterprise. There is a firefox.cfg in the installation directory (and an autoconfig.js in the ./defaults/pref sub-directory). Everything works fine when a pref(...); entry is written to the firefox.cfg. However, we want the firefox.cfg to call the pref(...); entries from a global_config.js which is saved on the machines public directory.

Therefore, the firefox.cfg says:

// free line lockPref("autoadmin.global_config_url","file:///C:/Users/Public/.../global_config.js");

But firefox does not load whatever prefs are written to the global_config.js. There probably is problems with the formatting of the file path (file:///C:/Users/Public/.../global_config.js). What would the correct formatting look like? Unfortunately, Mozilla´s support guide only includes an example code for a firefox.cfg which calls a global_config.js via http:, but not via file:.

Is there a way to push a policy that will allow device and apps and local netwrok access via MDM (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/control-personal-device-local-network-permissions-firefox)? We need to allow Firefox to access an app agent that is running on a device via localhost. We would like to do it with a macOS profile, Windows GPO and a json policy for linux. I can't seem to find this setting in policy templates.
