• How to set preferences of creation for all users - machine laboratory at the University?

  I'll put up for our University editing room which has a CC license "per machine". It is a PC facility. This machine will be used by a class of students who will register with their own credentials. I need to set preferences for the first (video output, default working space planning etc. discs) so that it is the same for all users connecting from us want a consistent configuration for educational purposes and not want to help every student to configure so that it displays correctly on monitors. Is there a way to save this default setting for each user?

  The most important of them is the preferences - reading to set up the second monitor.

• Why Firefox 31 change all icons PDF and open in browser, require a fix by using REGEDIT to set for all USERS on a computer?

  The solution to use REGEDIT in the question linked below almost fixed my problem with PDF files on more than 30 computers with multiple users on each computer:
  https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/1013642

  But I need to fix for all users on a computer without logging on each account on each computer. My challenge was to log on as an administrator and change the following key of the overall system instead:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\.PDF

  Name: by default
  Type: Reg_SZ
  Data: FirefoxHtm

  Changed FirefoxHtm to AcroExch.Document.11 data

  I use Adobe Reader XI on Win7 Pro 64-bit machines.
  The problem started when I ran a file downloaded to install the new version of Firefox on computers.

  Why Firefox would require me to use REGEDIT in this way to solve the problem?

  This only happens when you set Firefox as the default browser and Firefox thinks that there is currently no application PDF file handles.

  A file to mozilla.cfg in the Firefox program folder can be used to lock the prefs or specify new values (default).

  A file local - settings.js must be placed in the folder "by default/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

I know that each user can enable/disable javascript with subject: config, but it is only one per / user activity. I want the javascript.enabled value set to false for all users.

• Docking station by default for all users

  I would like to create a default dock that all users will have when they connect.

  So far on the administrator account, I installed the dock how I want it to look.

  I copied the \Library\Preferences\com.apple.dock.plist file, and then paste it in the system\library\User / Template\English.lproj file.

  This doesn't seem to work.

  I also tried to stick in system\library\User / Template\English.lproj\Library\Preferences

  That did not work.

  I also tried to stick in system\library\User / Template\English.lproj\Library\Application/ Support

  This no longer works.

  Any ideas?

  I remind you that you are on a UNIX machine and not Windoze. Stop putting human oblique zigzag in your paths - they lean forward under macOS. A slash (as you'll see below) is used to escape white space in a path name.

  In your local account, configure the applications you want for all users (including system preferences: Dock settings) in your Dock. Then apply the following copy command in the Terminal of your home directory (you will be asked your admin password).

  sudo cp ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist Template/English.lproj/Library/Preferences system/library/User\

• Enable Cookies for all users

  Hello

  I have a series of computers that run the mozilla firefox. For some reason, firefox handling cookies is disabled by default for everyone who uses a computer. I can activate on a per user basis, but it's tedious. Not to mention he's totally confusing to end users as to why some web sites do not work. Is there a way to enable cookies for all users on a computer without having to re-sysprep and copying to a new default profile for each of the computers? Something about: config, maybe?

  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");
  

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

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

• AddOns for all users

  I'm trying to deploy Firefox on my personal work machines.

  We use Windows 7 on them and want to be able to have available extensions for all users on this computer.

  However, after much research, it seems that all previous to this problem solutions have been limited or removed.

  There should be an easy way to have addOns installed for all users. It is not feasible to make each single user install each single addOn one by one.

  So while the links were good and everything worked, but I thought that it would take an easy source of step by step to get an addon to work for all users of a "dumbed down" version As a result I got an addOn to work for all users, there may be shortcuts here and there, but it worked for me.

  So here it is:

  1. first you need to download the '. '. XPI file"of the addOn. This is done by downloading using another browser (Internet explorer).

  2. Once downloaded, you must extract the contents of the "." XPI file"in a folder. I used WinZip to do this.

  3. go to the extracted files and you should see a file called 'install.rdf '. Open this file with WordPad.

  4 in this file is a Unique ID, specific to the addOn. It is normally at the top of the file. You can search the

   <Description about="urn:mozilla:install-manifest">
  

  and the next line after that it should be your ID in the form of:

   {d10d0bf8-f5b5-c8b4-a8b2-2b9879e08c5d}
  

  for example.

  5. with the help of this Unique ID, you must create a folder in the install directory of Mozilla Firefox called 'distribution' and a subfolder in that called "extensions" and a subfolder using the name of your Unique code.
  Example:

   C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\distribution\extensions\{d10d0bf8-f5b5-c8b4-a8b2-2b9879e08c5d}
  

  In this case, you should empty your extracted contents of the "." XPI file.

  6. you must now tell Mozilla to look in these folders. To do this, you need to change the global preferences. This is done by going to:

   C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref
  

  In this case, you should have 2 files:

   channel-prefs.js
   user.js
  

  If they do not exist, create them if you please.

  Inside of "channel - prefs.js" you need to put the following at the end of the file:

   pref("app.update.channel", "release");
   pref("extensions.enabledScopes", "0");
   user_pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0);
  

  Inside the "user.js" you must put the following at the end of the file:

   user_pref("extensions.shownSelectionUI", true);
   user_pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0);
  

  7, you're done! Your addOn should be activated automatically as soon as the user starts Firefox.

• Can I install Firefox in a way that will never check an upgrade for all users?

  In the approximately 500 mV VDI environment I would like to disable checking of upgrades for users of all virtual machines. We cannot update Firefox until we have ensured that the new version works with specific tools. Virtual machines are linked clones that are being refreshed to their State before logon after users log off. This causes the popup to come upgrade whenever users connect. Users are not allowed to upgrade, then it is a nuisance that I would like to eliminate them.

  I found that I can use on: config to disable checking of upgrade on the image, where all virtual machines are created, but cela will not shut it for all users for the user with which the image is kept. Is there a central setting that allows me to do this? Or this would require a change in profile all users? And if the latter, what a change I need to make to their profile?

  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
  

  See:

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

  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
  

  lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);

• Is it possible to set up for multiple users on the same computer to avoid entering the e-mail and the password

  Original title: Multi users

  Is it possible to set up for multiple users on the same computer to avoid entering the email and password every time that a new user want to check emails?

  Hello

  Welcome to the community forums of Microsoft and thanks for posting the question. According to the description, you need help in the creation of multiple user accounts. I've surely you will help find a solution on the issue.

  What is the operating system installed on the computer?

  User accounts, several people can easily share a single computer. Each person can have a separate user account with unique settings and preferences, such as a screen saver or desktop background. User accounts control files and programs users can access and what types of changes users can make to the computer. As a general rule, you'll want to create standard accounts for most computer users.

  If you use Windows Vista or Windows 7, see the article below:
