Can you add a configuration setting to Mozilla Firefox to disable Create New Profile, configurable in the policies.json file? (A second option but a much uglier one would be to disable being able to select a file location for a new profile. Then you could make the default profile directory write only, which would also accomplish the same thing.) (A third option would be to able to configure extensions by default upon installation in the ExtensionSettings policy.)

To explain, I use LeechblockNG on Firefox on Ubuntu. Very helpful. By placing a policies.json file (see at bottom) in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory, I can create a system wide policy. I can make the LeechblockNG extension mandatory and to be installed upon every new profile creation. That all works very well. HOWEVER, there is NO way to be able to set those options in the new profile. So LeechblockNG is installed with default options (which are no blocking at all), which effectively bypasses the addon.

I am also writing the author of the leechblock extension to see if there is any way to set the options for leechblock upon installation (the third option above).

But I know other people have this same question, and at present, if I am correct, there is no way to block new profile creation, or the Profile Manager window in Firefox.

So could you please add that option to the Firefox policies.json configuration? Something like "DisableNewProfiles": true would do it.

Thanks!

My current policies.json file in /etc/firefox/policies/ directory: { "policies": { "BlockAboutConfig": true, "BlockAboutProfiles": true, "PrivateBrowsingModeAvailability": 1, "DisableSafeMode": true, "ExtensionSettings":{ "*": { "installation_mode": "blocked", "blocked_install_message": "Prohibited install more extensions." }, "leechblockng@proginosko.com": { "installation_mode": "force_installed", "install_url": "https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4374316/leechblock_ng-1.6.6.xpi" } } } }

Le titre décrit déjà pas mal ce que je recherche: à propos des épingles de la page d'accueil, c'est pas très clair pour les urls qu'on peut mettre (web, certes mais), je mets par exemple un lien google drive pour l'icône mais à ce moment l'image n'est pas bien centré.. Il faudrait un lien qui affiche telle quelle l'image. Dès que la page ciblée n'est pas uniquement l'image, il y aura des bords ou autres.

Comment faire à ce moment là?

Ok 1st off you removed the extra "Tabs" which helped alot of us sort tabs, an never gave any kinda excuse besides to improve performance, which is as much a joke as biden was as president!~

 But now ya go an move the d@mn weather app from the Left Side to the Ride Side without bothering to ask anyone if they are ok with it, or even give us the ABILITY to change the location back!~
 Did Goofle buy you as you seem to be goofing up the browser more an more recently an doing stuff ppl do not care for!!!~~~

You might be a free Browser, but learning from ya users is a smart idea before you end up loosing them!!!~~

An John is as much a liar as a politician is, he told me MONTHS ago he would see about why the xtra tabs were removed, and NOT once was a answer given!!!~~

 So John needs to be either written up for lies or given a time out on his position!!!~~~

Found a lot of articles and tried a lot of things. Too bad firefox doesn't have a way to turn off the crash reporter. Something keeps causing it to prompt the crash reporter but firefox continues to work without any trouble. Networking for an enclosed group. Win10 most users on ESR 115.x. How can I make the crash reporter stop?

Can you either move the weather widget back to the left side or maybe instead of just changing things to change them let people put it where they want it? My eyes go to the left when i open a new tab and it was a lot nicer on the left side. Now its on the right and it actually makes no sense to me why it was moved so move it back or give people the choice to have it where they want it.
