Can you add a configuration setting to Mozilla Firefox to disable Create New Profile, configurable in the policies.json file? (A second option but a much uglier one would be to disable being able to select a file location for a new profile. Then you could make the default profile directory write only, which would also accomplish the same thing.) (A third option would be to able to configure extensions by default upon installation in the ExtensionSettings policy.)

To explain, I use LeechblockNG on Firefox on Ubuntu. Very helpful. By placing a policies.json file (see at bottom) in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory, I can create a system wide policy. I can make the LeechblockNG extension mandatory and to be installed upon every new profile creation. That all works very well. HOWEVER, there is NO way to be able to set those options in the new profile. So LeechblockNG is installed with default options (which are no blocking at all), which effectively bypasses the addon.

I am also writing the author of the leechblock extension to see if there is any way to set the options for leechblock upon installation (the third option above).

But I know other people have this same question, and at present, if I am correct, there is no way to block new profile creation, or the Profile Manager window in Firefox.

So could you please add that option to the Firefox policies.json configuration? Something like "DisableNewProfiles": true would do it.

Thanks!

My current policies.json file in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory: { "policies": { "BlockAboutConfig": true, "BlockAboutProfiles": true, "PrivateBrowsingModeAvailability": 1, "DisableSafeMode": true, "ExtensionSettings":{ "*": { "installation_mode": "blocked", "blocked_install_message": "Prohibited install more extensions." }, "leechblockng@proginosko.com": { "installation_mode": "force_installed", "install_url": "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4374316/leechblock_ng-1.6.6.xpi" } } } }

Windows computer. 2024-12 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5048685)

Firefox: Version 133.0.3 (64-bit)

Sometimes I am asked to complete a Google Forms form to register for an event. This seems to work fine with all but one business. For that business, Chrome works just fine. Firefox does honor the submit button on this company's form. It used to last year and did in early September, but not since.

Also, I recently purchased a used car from Chevy. When I need to log in to their portal to sign up for service, I need to use Chrome. When I try to log in using Firefox, a new window opens but does not offer me the username or pwd prompts.

I get "No video support and MIME type found". I have uninstall/reinstalled, checked codex, disabled addons and downloaded Microsoft windows media pack, then restarted the computer.

Nothing seems to work. But i had to reinstall Firefox again because all my tabs would crash after the last reinstall.

I don't live in the U.S. and I LOATHE Donald Trump.

I would like the right to BLOCK ALL Donald Trump news, references, and any other reports that include his name or are written about him. I think it is propaganda forced upon the masses to have to see this jackass day in and day out. And for the next four years he will be front page news on every single God Damned channel, paper, report and internet news feed.

Please allow us to put him on a BLACK LIST and give us the right to Black List anyone we see fit to put on that list. I curate my YT feeds, specifically, and I have black listed several people and topics from any and all of my feeds. I think the internet should allow us to do so for ourselves, and not be forced by internet providers and search engines and web browsers to out up with that jackass for another four years !!

STOP THE INSANITY !!!! Thank you Jeremiah Andrews Montreal, Canada

In the "General" section of my Firefox Settings, it states that "Your browser is being managed by your organization."

When I click on that, it shows the word "Certificates" under Policy Name, and "ImportEnterpriseRoots" under Policy Value.

Is this something that Firefox installed, or is it something a third-party (like my former company) installed on my computer.

Also, would this possibly slow down my computer?

Thanks for your feedback.

After a Windows 11 update, every time I play some video/sound and stop the playback, my whole computer audio doesn't work anymore. When I reset my computer, the audio comes back again. I tried using other browsers (Edge, Chrome, etc.) and other programs/applications, but this only happens in Firefox.

Any ideas on what can I do to solve this issue?


Basic information:

Firefox version: 133.0.3 (64-bits) Operation System: Microsoft Windows 11 Home Single Language OS Version: 10.0.26100 Compilation 26100 Computer Brand: Alienware m16 R2 Sound drivers: Realtek Semiconductor Corp. version 6.0.9738.1

Links from the Autohotkey forum suddenly do not open properly. This may have started with my recent upgrade to FF 133.0.3.

Here is sample link:

https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=134961&e=1&view=unread#unread

If I open this link normally (which, for me, means in a new tab) I am sent to Captcha screen, and upon answering it, then appears only a text outline (not the CSS code) of the page. If I open IN NEW PRIVATE WINDOW, I get the captcha screen again and after answering it, the page opens correctly.

(I usually don't get the captcha quiz from Autohotkey forum also, but that may be their doing. I also can state the captcha screen is not because cookies have been erased. I keep most all cookies.) Firfefox.)

I have used Firefox on my PC for ever (10-15 years). Yahoo was set to be my home page so I can get to my email. Starting 5-6 days ago when I click Mozilla Firefox on my task bar it opens a white (blank) page, no yahoo (but it shows yahoo.com in the address bar). I can go to my book marks and got them or type in a URL and go there OK. But, to see my mail I have to open Google Chrome to get to yahoo and log in. If I'm on Firefox and get the blank screen, then go to another URL from my bookmarks then type in yahoo.com it goes back to a blank screen that shows https://www.yahoo.com/ in the address.

Hello, It's been like....forever.....that when I log onto a sight, a window pops up asking whether if I want to save the id and password for that sight. All of a sudden, a week or so ago, all of my passwords just vanished! It has been saving them for every site that I chose to save. I would, on occasion, go in and manually delete one or some, but I have really come to depend on Firefox for saving the info. I just don't know what has happened. Any ideas on how I can remedy this?
