I have whitelisted the websites that I want my students to view during my exam. However, some of the smarter students just go Extensions and disable my whitelist addon. Is there a way that I can stop them from disabling the whitelist manager?

Hello JonathanDavid,

You would have to use policies.json :

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/customizing-firefox-using-policiesjson

Also see : https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md

(you'll have to scroll down some)

This will however not just make it impossible to disable this one extension only, but any extension you may have .....
