My problem was in my intranet organisation IE accepts trusted root certificates from windows local machine but firefox not accepts.

after modify the security.enterprise_roots.enabled to true through browser about:config it works fine.

but I can't explain my huge number of clients to do the same

so if I can modify through peace of javascript code then i place this code in my landing page.

Thanks for the support

hello, javascript on a webpage is not able to change the firefox configuration as this would have grave impacts on security. if you need to delpoy a particular config throughout a large number of systems, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/firefox-enterprise/policies-customization-enterprise has some ways to do that.
