Hi, Support.

I tried to search about this but cant find any solutions, I wonder if you guys can help me.

So I worked as end user support, and I wanted to restrict the policy not to install any add ons in their Mozilla browser. Since the configuration of mozilla will be based on windows profile its hard to control.

Is there any way for me to disable the add ons by script or any settings I could configure by admin account and it will reflect to all windows profile.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards, Paul S

Lock preference in profile: Step:1) Created a file name like "local-settings.js" in -- /usr/lib/firefox/defaults/pref --- Pasted this line -- pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg"); --- in "local-settings.js" Step :2) Created a file name like "mozilla.cfg" in -- /usr/lib/firefox --- And copy and paste the below line in this "mozilla.cfg" file.

defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
