User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11 I have two users on my machine, which runs a single installation of Firefox. Both users have sufficient access to allow software updates. But when I tried to disable automatic updates, I realised I have to do this for every user. There should be a way to make this setting system-wide. Reproducible: Always
Product: Firefox → Toolkit
Perhaps something like a prefs.js or user.js that is in the installDir would globally set Preferences for any new or existing Profiles?
This is possible now using policies.
