• How to hide the button "Start a conversation" using mozilla.cfg

  Hello

  I've just updated to FF 41.02 and my mozilla.cfg does not hide the smiley face icon (start a conversation). Anyone know how I can do this?

  Here's the line I use for my mozilla.cfg to show/hide icons

  lockPref("browser.uiCustomization.state", "{"placements":{"PanelUI-contents":["edit-controls","downloads-button","new-window-button","privatebrowsing-button","zoom-controls","developer-button","fullscreen-button","preferences-button","history-panelmenu","save-page-button","find-button","add-ons-button","loop-button"],"addon-bar":["addonbar-closebutton","status-bar"],"PersonalToolbar":[],"nav-bar":["urlbar-container","search-container","print-button","home-button"],"TabsToolbar":["tabbrowser-tabs","new-tab-button","alltabs-button"],"toolbar-menubar":["menubar-items"]},"seen":[],"dirtyAreaCache":["PersonalToolbar","nav-bar","TabsToolbar","toolbar-menubar","PanelUI-contents"],"currentVersion":4,"newElementCount":0}");

• Mozilla.cfg not applied in Firefox 4

  I'm trying to get some settings configured and locked using mozilla.cfg. We used this exact method in Firefox 3.x, but for some reason it's ignorant mozilla.cfg.

  Here's my mozilla.cfg

  //
  try {
  lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);
  lockPref("app.update.autoUpdateEnabled", false);
  lockPref("extensions.update.enabled", true);
  lockPref("extensions.update.autoUpdateEnabled", true);
  lockPref("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris", "shpt1-ed1, sharepoint");
  lockPref("network.cookie.alwaysAcceptSessionCookies", true);
  lockPref("network.cookie.cookieBehavior", 1);
  } catch(e) {
  displayError("lockedPref", e);
  }

  and the appropriate lines all.js

  pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // for MCD .cfg files
  pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
  

  You can place a js file (local - settings.js) in the folder defaults\pref in the Firefox program folder. Firefox 4 is no longer uses all.js, but packs all the files in one archive special compressed omni.jar (optimized) and it is best not to edit this file.

• How can I get the seeds a server certificate or a certificate using mozilla.cfg exception

  I work with mozilla.cfg and I would create a security certificate exception. I have the following functional

  UNIQUE Set authentication settings
  Pref ("network.automatic - ntlm - auth.trusted - URIS","fake.com" ");
  Pref ("network.negotiate - auth.trusted - URIS","sso.fake.com" ");
  Pref ("network.negotiate - auth.delegation - URI","sso.fake.com" ");
  Pref ("network.automatic - ntlm - auth.allow - no - name FQDN", "true");

  Pref ("browser.fixup.domainwhitelist.fakecorp.com", "true");
  Pref ("browser.fixup.domainwhitelist.fakeassociate.com", "true");
  Pref ("browser.fixup.domainwhitelist.fake.com", "true");

  However, there is a server jump during the UNIQUE authentication process which is forcing me to make an exception of the certificate security.

  Bottom line, I'm looking for a way to preconfigure this exception using the mozilla.cfg method

  Details of the environment:
  Enterprise Active Directory offering the 'autoconfig.js' & 'mozilla.cfg.
  mainly of Windows 7
  Firefox 38.01 & 38.05

  I'm not aware of a way to manage the certificate via mozilla.cfg exception.

  Normally, you use the certutil application.

• User is unable to change the home page when I put one in default mozilla.cfg

  I have this in mozilla.cfg:
  Pref ("browser.startup.homepage", "http://internal.intranet.tld");

  That of our intranet as a default home page. But it is not locked (I don't use lockPref()), so I want to allow a user to change the home page if he wants.

  But it does not work. Change the home page is not saved.

  Hi ohmer, you must use defaultPref() for the parameters that users should be able to change and have full control over - pref() allows to deviate from the default for the current session...

• How to change Mozilla.cfg to set google as default search engine

  Need help with our setting mozilla.cfg file to change the default to yahoo search engine to google.
  Browser.search.defaultenginename in comments: config already has the default value of 'google', so doesn't justing adding this line of modzilla.cfg - ' pref ("browser.search.defaultenginename", "google", as its currently by default.)

  I noticed that if I manually change the search provider (thru the interface), then this value changes from 'default' to 'user set', which retains google as the default search engine. So how do I either set this value as 'user set' within mozilla.cfg, or use some alternative?
  

  thxs

  You can restore the change in Google Yahoo search engine in the Firefox 34.0.5 by enabling / disabling browser.search.isUS to false.
  Note that only 34.0.5 replaces the default search by Yahoo! engine.

• How to mozilla.cfg, override.ini, all - companyname.js, work once and for all for all users files

  I'm trying to apply a patch for the browser firefox (version 23.0.1) on more than 250 computers. Setting default Web pages, disable the annoying guests as the default browser and import bookmarks and deleting history on shutdown or startup. It is very easily done editing the pref.js file, but I will not change this file, it is out of the question. Another update of FF will erase or overwrite all my changes.

  I run a computer lab at the University which is locked with a Net Support School console. You don't need to find out who. Virtually all Web sites are limited except those ones I list white. The Web sites we use have an extensive API for JS, CSS, Java, PHP, etc... We use technology so that students use calculators graphics, video, and the module test socket of the Whitelist, as Pearson or Aleks sites. Now, with that said, cookies and stored profile history become a problem, and on up to day 25% of students using computers need history deleted for a loading page. I think I solved this problem permanently by whitelist backend sites import plugins and API etc, I found the console developers. No matter what. What I learned from all this, is that Firefox can be very customizable, using the '...\Mozilla Firefox\mozilla.cfg' and '...\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\prefs\all-companyname.js' (or custom.js) the problem is little matter what I try I can't seem to work. Was the closest I have got here:

  http://www.intrntpirate.com/?p=615

  Here again, even that ^^ did not work. I followed these instructions to a "T". What is the problem with the explanations above in the link? Why firefox doing harder and harder for us to optimize it for massive deployments through a company and a University? I won't do any fancy hacks to avoid the main problem. I need mozilla.cfg and all - companyname.js and override.ini files to work, if and only if they are still topical.

  Here's what my files look like so far:

  name: all - lmc.js
  
  location: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\
  
  Pref ("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
  
  Pref ("browser.startup.homepage", "https://(some url)");

  name: override.ini
  
  location: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\
  
  [XRE]
  
  EnableProfileMigrator = false
  
  
  
  name: mozilla.cfg
  
  location: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\
  
  //
  
  lockPref ("privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", true);
  
  lockPref ("privacy.sanitize.promptOnSanitize", false);
  
  lockPref ("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false);
  
  lockPref ("toolkit.telemetry.enabled", false);
  
  lockPref ("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", 2);
  
  lockPref ("toolkit.telemetry.rejected", true);

  I tried using it or not, the Configurator automatic mozilla. I tried to change lockPref pref. Nothing works. Not the override.ini, not at all - lmc.js and not the mozilla.cfg. I lost hours of reading through the blogs of experts telling us to change files that do not exist, or beat around the Bush. I did the search. If you have the answer, or you want to help me understand this just remember to keep it simple. Please, I beg you. In the end, I want to pack all the config files, with one how, in a zip on our shared drive folder. To have FF on measure and ready to deploy on different services on the campus.

  Error console warnings are OK.

  The general.config.obscure_value pref is set to the default of 0?

  You can try to save these versions of the files (open in a Firefox tab and save via Save Page As)

  I don't know if all these prefs are still supported in the current version of Firefox.

• What happened to mozilla.cfg?

  The last SMS package that I created for Firefox was 6.0.2, so my apologies if this is old news. What I understand replaced user.js mozilla.cfg? What lockpref, is an equivalence? I'm also a bit puzzled as to how we're supposed to use "browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone" or "browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser" in user.js when the location there assume that it does not exist until the application is run. Am I missing something?

  • http://KB.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

  Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock the prefs or specify default values.
  
  Place a local file - settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you will also find the channel - prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg file.

  pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
  pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
  

  You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:

  defaultPref();  // set new default value
  pref();         // set pref, but allow changes in current session
  lockPref();     // lock pref, disallow changes
  

• Via mozilla.cfg proxy settings

  Thus, it is my first foray in the world of config files and such so patient with me if I'm doing something completely wrong.

  I'm writing a mozilla.cfg file which will force the auto proxy detection. I used lockPref ("network.proxy.type", 4), but I get an error 'Unable to read configuration file' at the launch of ff8. When I take this line out (I have a few other settings there), it seems to work ok. What I'm doing wrong here?

  Also, incidentally, are there any settings that I can add to this file that removes the prompt about firefox is not the default browser?

  Can you post the entire content of the text file mozilla.cfg?

  Do you use a ROT13 byte offset?

  Prefs that are locked through lockPref() can not be changed at all.

• No effect of mozilla.cfg

  Hi all

  I am trying to create a new package for SCCM deployment using Firefox 50.0. Unfortunately the .cfg file do not seem to work. My goal is to disable the automatic update feature which works fine manually via the subject: config.

  my local - settings.js contains: pref ("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");

  Mozilla.cfg: //disable application updates Pref ("app.update.enabled", false); Pref ("app.update.auto", false);

  As I read the .cfg is not tolerated error, but it does not work: (for example: pref ("browser.startup.homepage","http://www.google.com'); also does not work.)

  Any advice?

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello to you :-)

  Make sure you also have the second line:

  Pref ("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg"); Pref ("general.config.obscure_value", 0);

  Thank you

• Custom Mozilla.cfg of the file no longer works after upgrade to v38.01

  I created a custom mozilla.cfg file which contains three main sections.
  First section locks several preferences.
  The second section modifies the chrome - cache the Orange button and add the menu bar.
  Section three adds a folder of bookmarks and links specific to our Organization.

  I also modified the local file - settings.js so that it points to my cfg file:
  Pref ("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
  Pref ("general.config.obscure_value", 0); This allows to deactivate the byte-shift

  After the v38.01, Firefox opens. He appears briefly in the Task Manager and goes. I started some tests and found that, if I comment out the line "pref ("general.config.obscure_value", 0);" in the local file - settings.js, FF opens but none of the settings I've specified are applied.
  I'm stuck because I have no idea what could be the problem. The allowed syntax has changed? The structure of the files has changed?
  I can post the cfg file if necessary.

  Thank you.

  Yes. This feature has disappeared.
