Where is looking for plugins on FF 40.0 XMLs?

I use Firefox on a Mac 40.0.

Up to 39 FF plugins to search XMLs here where it is stored in:
/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/resources/browser/SearchPlugins

I can't find this file. I have an XML part that is customized for DDG I want to use.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Yes, Firefox 40 no longer uses an external file for search by default/built in plugins. I recommend that you put the .xml file in your profile folder.

If you have already added a search engine for a site (for example, this one), it should already be a searchplugins folder. If this isn't the case, you can create a. See: profiles of boards - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.

Because Firefox has a plugin DuckDuckGo built-in, you may need to change the 'short name' of the search engine a little to ensure that Firefox overrides not yours. Please see this post for a discussion earlier about the name change: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1075655#answer-762666.

I have not any comments from this user to know if it was successful. Could you let me know if Firefox detects and uses your outsourced .xml file?
