I am working on packaging Mozilla Firefox 57.0.4 ESR. Disabled data upload, crash reporter and health reporter using configuration file. During the launch of firefox I am seeing a popup from antivirus software that uploading data is disabled using firefox. What exactly Firefox is trying to upload and how can I disable it? I had used the same configuration settings earlier version with no issues. Please suggest. Thanking you in advance.

Mozilla Firefox 57.0.4 ESR Doesn't exist!

Current ESR is 52 and later this year the next ESR version will be 60.

I would first investigate your A/V as that message came from it.

Where in Firefox so you see Firefox 57.0.4 RR ??

Is that a custom build of Firefox, which might be noted in the About Firefox window which is available from the Help menu. I have never before heard of a RR version, sorry.

Please provide a screenshot of that Firefox 57.0.4 RR designation.


See this support article about creating a screenshot. How do I create a screenshot of my problem? It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.

Then use the Browse .... button below the Post a Reply text box to upload the screenshot.
