If you install a third-party plug-in, you can turn it on manually. But if you enter under another Windows user, it will be turned off, and you need to turn it on again manually. And how to enable the plug-in in the default Mozilla profile for all users?

Try this:

Users on Firefox Quantum, which normally only works with Web Extensions (a new type of plugin architecture), can enable support for legacy add-ins through about:config, search for extensions.legacy.enabled and set it to true.

I specify my question. First, it's about Mosilla 41-48, and 52. I have a plug-in, not an extension. After installing Windows 7 or 10, I need to install the firefox. And then put the plugin (it's like adobebash has its own * .msi). Now I have to run Mozilla, and after turning on this plugin manually, and if a new user appears, I have to go back and turn on this plugin. And how to make it included in the default profile for all of the following Windows users? I know how to enable support for Windows, and how to make the plug-in not included by default.
