Citrix server need extension installed for all users
Been banging my head on this for a few days hoping for some help.
My main goal is to lockdown FF24.0ESR running on a Citrix 5.0 x32 server.
I have the mozlla.cfg setup and working however it doesn't change UI settings (remove help menu, remove google toolbar..etc)
I found a kiosk extension that will work great for this. However just to test to see if I can get an extension working I am using colorfultabs 28. If i can get that working then use that process for the kiosk extension.
I am unable to get the extension already installed for a existing user. Or any new users either.
I can put the extension in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions and it prompts the user to install the extension.
I want the extension already installed so the user doesn't have to (nor do they have permissions to) install plugins. We are using roaming profiles.
I have read several articles and moved the extension into the program folder,, move the extension to users\default and users\public , still with no success. Tried HKUsers default key as well.
Any ideas or pointers appreciated.
thx RR

Try locking the following preferences.
lockPref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0);
lockPref("extensions.shownSelectionUI", true);

Don't use multiple methods for the same extension. If you want to install an extension by placing it under the installation folder,
- It must be placed under <installation folder>\browser\extensions
- Its filename must be the extension ID. Unpack the extension (it's a simple ZIP file with an XPI file extension) and examine install.rdf which you can open with a text editor. Look for the em:id line. For example, the French language pack is originally named fr.xpi but it must be renamed to langpack-fr@firefox.mozilla.org.xpi

You know I have looked for days and never came across those settings, or at least tied to multi user extensions.
Your solution worked perfectly (the first time I might add.)
Added the expanded extension to the folder and put in the 2 entries in the mozilla.cfg and worked like a champ.
Now if I can only figure out how to remove the help menu.
Most excellent reply thanks much for taking the time. RR
