Firefox GPO disables updates for both ESR and customer version

We use GPO for Firefox ESR and we disable update using the GPO and it works perfect. However some developers need to test with the Firefox Customer version and the GPO disables the update for the customer version as well. Is there a possibility to split the GPO in half and let us the choice which version we would like to disable the update?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know we don't have the ability to split the GPO in "half." I think your best bet would to put them in a test group and go from there.

Do you have the ability to move their computers to a new tree and apply the specific GPO you want to this?

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately we don't have the ability. We don't have an overview of all the computers who need the consumer version of Firefox and they aren't in just one group of people.

Thanks for the reply. That solves it. If somewhere in the future you guys will implement it that would be very kind. :-)
