I am deploying firefox in a shared desktop environment and they all require the same firefox extensions.

I have downloaded the .xpi files and when I install them it only appears for me and not for the other users on the PC.

I need to be able to install these extensions once and have them available to all users on that PC.

I tried the -install-global-extensions command, but looks like that was removed from Firefox 10. Does anyone have any suggestions to my problem?

thanks!

Hi!

I'm not an expert with Add-ons so I can't help much but at least someone else in this forum knows the answer you may be luckier in the Add-ons forum: https://forums.mozilla.org/addons/
