Hi I need to know how to deploy firefox via intune. LOB or windows app(win32) is the best way to deploy firefox? Once we deploy this,how we can enable auto update of firefox? Is there an option to enable auto update of firefox in all windows devices where the firefox is installed by the users manually from internet sites(different versions) not from intune. Waiting for the response. Thank you

We have documentation for using our policies via Intune:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/managing-firefox-intune

Including forcing autoupdate. Those policies will be applied regardless of how Firefox is installed.

We also offer an MSI that can be deployed:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/deploy-firefox-msi-installers

Our MSI is our EXE wrappered, so auto update is enabled by default.

As far as LOB versus Window app, that really boils down to personal preference, we don't make a recommendation. If you use the MSI, it has to be a LOB.

I have 2 more question. 1) What happens if i deploy Firefox MSI via intune to a device which already having Firefox installed?(Eg: device with latest version of Firefox and device with old version) 2)If i select ADMX latest version to add in intune, does it work with the newer and old version in user machines?

It depends on what you have set in Intune for a minimum version.

It will install Firefox over older versions.

I'm working on creating better detection scripts for Intune.
