I am deploying Firefox ESR and need to know if plugins read the registry can be activated by the force on all computers.

I'm deploying Firefox ESR 31.X to all the computers in my company. We have plugins for security that I need to have forcibly running on each computer so that users cannot turn it off. The main example is McAfee SiteAdvisor. Firefox detects the plugin based on the HKLM\Software\MozillaPlugins registry key. The plugin provides a path to the location of the DLL in the McAfee program folder. Is it possible that I can put this plugin to always be activated?

You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock the prefs or specify new values (default).

Put a local file - settings.js in the folder defaults\pref also the file prefs.js - channel where to specify using mozilla.cfg.

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

These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:

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

See:

You must set the pref (s) of plugin.state related to 2 always activate a plugin.

  • lockPref ("plugin.state.npmcffplg", 2);
  • plugin. State (0: never activate; 1: ask to activate; 2: always activate)
