You can only block these four about page via a policy. 

BlockAboutAddons 	Block access to the Add-ons Manager (about:addons).
BlockAboutConfig 	Block access to about:config.
BlockAboutProfiles 	Block access to About Profiles (about:profiles).
BlockAboutSupport 	Block access to Troubleshooting Information (about:support).

If you want to prevent making changes to specific settings, you need to lock each of them. See Preferrences.
