We are running firefox in kiosk mode , I am using r_kiosk plugin to disable all the functionality, and update the user pref with following , but still getting the telemetry prompt is showing up. pref("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", false); pref("toolkit.telemetry.rejected", true); pref("toolkit.telemetry.enabled", false);

rpm : firefox-24.4.0-1.el6.centos.x86_64

Do we have any option to increase the frequency / manually initiative the telemetry prompt to verify after updating the user preference.

The about:config page shows toolkit.telemetry.prompted as an Integer pref with value 2 for me.

  • toolkit.telemetry.enabled = true
  • toolkit.telemetry.prompted = 2
  • toolkit.telemetry.rejected = true
