How can i change the default profile location to another directory or environment variable?
Hi,
I need to move where Mozilla Firefox creates its profiles. it currently creates in AppData\Local\Mozilla... normally that is ok. In my network unfortunately AppData\Local is synchronised using Citrix Profile Management tools. the size of the Firefox profile whilst only several meg causes slow login times for my customers. So we currently have folder re-direction enabled and we would like to move the Firefox profile to a directory within documents i.e. %USERNAME%\documents.
I have found some ADM templates on the internet however, they have not had enough options including the VBS files i spotted that they are for a very old version. i have tried to find the correct location in the registry under HKLM\software\policys\Mozilla however this does not exist.
We are using Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Mixed Versions of Firefox used but for sake of arguments version 28.
If someone could help that would be much appreciated.
Kind regards, David Coates
