Deploying FireFox MSI with GPO: uninstall fails

Hi. On an Active Directory, we deploy Firefox (normal or ESR). It's OK. When we deactivate the link of the GPO, it's supposed to uninstall. But it doesn't (even if we delete the GPO, specifying to uninstall at once).

The gpresult command on each computer doesn't show the GPO anymore, but Firefox is still installed.

( FYI, we used to do that with FrontMotion Community Edition, and it was always working (instal and uninstal). We even just tried the "last" (but old) ESR edition present on the FrontMotion site (CEESR-102), and it works. But FM CE version has stopped being developped. )

So, any idea about why the official Mozilla Firefox version (normal or ESR) doesn't uninstall?

Thanks by advance.

Are you IT or the user doing this? This sounds more like a IT since it involves GPO which is a Windows OS function.

Nyttig?

We have an open bug for this

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1505436

Unfortunately there hasn't been a lot of focus on the MSI anymore.

Nyttig?
