Hi,

We are using Firefox Enterprise on Windows Server 2016 Remote Desktop for approx 100 users.

The users need very often to create a new profile when launching FireFox, and then loose all their bookmarks.

Is there a way to manage the profiles correctly to bypass this problem ?

Thank you for your help ! Have a nice day.

What do the users see that requires them to create a new profile?

Hi,

Firefox says that the user have launched an old version of Firefox (see Attachement).

So for some reason your users are launching older versions of Firefox on different machines.

If you can't determine why that is, you can set MOZ_ALLOW_DOWNGRADE in the environment to allow this behavior or modify the Firefox icon to pass --allow-downgrade when starting.
