Stop Firefox from telling you, you have not used it in a while and asking to reset it permanetly.
I need to permanently, FOREVER, stop Firefox from telling me I have not used it in a while and prompting me to reset it. I have 100s of PCs that are frozen and as far as Firefox is concerned they ARE ALWAYS in need of being reset. This must go away. When Firefox starts on these PCs it MUST NEVER ask a question or prompt the user for anything EVER. All the decisions have already been made for the user and that MUST NOT CHANGE.

In the past the, the parent.lock file in your profile folder is used to detect the time when the profile was active the last time & once there has been no activity for 60 days, you'll get the prompt you've referred to in your question.
Try that!
Thanks for the reply. I have heard that about the file, but I need to know how to tell Firefox that I don't care about when it was last used etc. I can delete the file, but it will come back. So the real answer I need is how to tell Firefox "not to check" when it was last used in the first place, not what file contains that information.
For now I will delete the file then, without starting Firefox I will freeze it and hope that will work. But Firefox needs a way that I can just tell it to not care.
Thanks again for help,
Ralph
