Since updating to the past two Firefox ESRs I can not change the homepage. It simply does nothing when i click on the button. Ive tried resetting profiles, resetting firefox. Just about everything that i have found online... Regular firefox works just fine and when i set the homepage using regular firefox, then uninstall, restart, install ESR, it uses the homepage from the regular firefox. Yet it will then not let me change it once the ESR version is installed. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Firefox 52.6.0

Did you get that ESR version directly from Mozilla, or was that provided to you by your company or other organization?

If not directly from Mozilla, you may have a build that has some preferences locked by a .cfg (config) file to keep them from being changed by the user.

I have tried both. We use PDQ deploy and use their pre-made packages but I also tried the version from Mozilla directly. Below is the only items in the .cfg file.

//disable default browser check pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser", false);

// disable application updates pref("app.update.enabled", false);

// Don't show the Firefox has been upgraded page lockPref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "ignore");

// Disable Add-on Select Window pref("extensions.shownSelectionUI", true); pref("extensions.autoDisableScopes", 0);

// disables the 'know your rights' button from displaying on first run pref("browser.rights.3.shown", true);

// disables the request to send performance data from displaying pref("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", 2); pref("toolkit.telemetry.rejected", true);

// disables built in pdf viewer pref("pdfjs.disabled", true);

pref("plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types", "");

// Setting Google as Default Seach. pref("browser.search.geoSpecificDefaults", false); pref("browser.search.defaultenginename.US", "data:text/plain,browser.search.defaultenginename.US=Google");
