Firefox Community Forum

When I go into Settings, I see the following message at the top:

"Your browser is being managed by your organization."

I've never seen this before. Going into about:policies, this is what I see:

ImportEnterpriseRoots

It's the only one there. My searches have told me that this should only appear if you're not an admin and it's on a work computer. But I am the admin and my computer is a home one, not a work one so this message shouldn't be there. I have looked up around here to find out how to disable/remove this and I did the following:

I found and followed these solutions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1434356 https://winaero.com/remove-your-browser-is-being-managed-by-your-organization-from-firefox/ https://www.minitool.com/news/firefox-your-browser-is-managed-by-your-organization.html

Where I made a backup of the Registry and went in to delete ImportEnterpriseRoots. I restarted Firefox afterwards, and when I checked it was removed. I restarted my computer just to be sure that it was removed, but upon restart the message appeared again and ImportEnterpriseRoots reappeared.

I then checked out these solutions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-disable-enterprise-roots-preference https://support.mozilla.org/eu/questions/1313379

Where I go to about:config the "security.certerrors.mitm.auto_enable_enterprise_roots" can be disabled, but the "security.enterprise_roots.enabled" is grayed out and I can't disable it at all. The solution above mentions that this can be caused by your anti virus. I tried disabling "https scanning" and "QUIC/http3" under Norton's Safe Web option, but this did nothing. I'm planning on removing Norton soon once my sub runs out and I know Norton is doing this to Firefox, so I'm concerned that if I don't remove this when I do an uninstall it will screw up Firefox or my computer. I've tried asking the Norton forums and they only offered the solutions above that I tried and they didn't work at all.

How do I remove the "Your browser is being managed by your organization." message and ImportEnterpriseRoots from Firefox if these solutions don't work?

I raised a support request for MalwareBytes Browser Guard version 2.6.27 blocking EASYLIST.

This is an anti-tracking tool, that some site use in their anti BOT checking JS scripts, prior to outputting the reCAPCHA Challenge, so it gets blocked, stopping users signing up, or signing in.

Here is a typical site: https://www.grandstream.com/newsletter-sign-up

Please explain why Mozilla/Firefox has prevented Browser Guard from being updated to the later 3.x.x. releases.

When I try to make Yahoo my default search engine (on desktop), Firefox does not give me that option. The dropdown choices are things like Amazon, Google... no Yahoo.

Hi Firefox,

As seen below in the screenshot I have been experiencing this error while browsing for the past few months now. I don't know why when i try to go google search something and then access the website i keep getting this message that the servers are not available and i do have a stable internet connection and its not a DNS issue. Could it be that google ad sense has restricted me as a user or it is something else... Please help because its been months now and i don't understand why this keeps coming up on every other website i try to access. I have to manually type in the search bar in order to access some websites and its really inconvenient when you are trying to get information on a certain topic or anything else.

Thank you

I'm trying to login to my Poshmark account but Firefox keeps switching to the create account page. It just doesn't stop. So I go to another website and try to login, same thing. Same for a couple other websites. All website I have accounts for and have all been visited within this past week and attempted login which didn't happen because I get redirected to create an account. I refuse to create more accounts because this isn't a me problem. Any advice would be fantastic. Please don't ask me to clear cache etc or restart my phone and laptop (yes, it's happening on my laptop, too) or uninstall and reinstall the app. All these things have been done more than once.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there, I had an issue just now with logging onto Audible.com.au. It brings up Amazon, so I logged in, but then it keeps bringing up the attached message and saying that Firefox requests my PIN number. I've never set one up and I've been using Mozilla and Firefox for about 15+ years now and never had this problem. The error message directs me where to go, however, when I log into the Mozilla account it says to go to Settings then Accounts then Sign-in Options.

The problem is, there is now 'accounts' under settings, let alone 'signin options'. I don't know what's going on or why, so really need some help.

Thanks. Carolyn

Hi I want to make firefox my default browser on my Samsung tablet. Right now it is Google. I have downloaded Firefox without a problem but I can't find a way to name it my default browser.

Vielen Dank für EURE Hilfe, liebe Mozilla / Firefoxfreunde,

Bitte versteht mich so. Ich habe keine gute Ausbildung in meinem nun 69jährigen Alter gehabt. "Computerarbeit" habe ich nötigerweise mir selbst beigebracht. Bereits über viele , viele Jahre habe ich voller Freude mit meinem LG Smartphone und diesem ACER PC gehabt. Nun habe ich noch immer meinen ACER, aber zwar noch das LG, in das ich ab und an schauen wollte, obwohl ich dort einen Akku habe der nicht mehr ganz o.k. ist. Ich brachte dieses alte Gerät, um Dinge zu finden, die notwendig waren, da unsere Schwester verstarb. Auf/ in meinem neuen XIAOMI Smartphone sind diese Notwendigkeiten nicht. Google und sein chinesischer Partner sind mir ein Graus. Angeblich soll die Simkarte kaputt sein vom LG. Egal..... ich schaffte es. Das FIESE ist, das Google mit meinen Daten und immer wieder, seiner Datensucht unangenehm umgeht. Ich will dieses TECHUNTERNEHMEN hier auf dem ACER nicht mehr sehen und haben wollen. Alleine schon, die lila Farbe im Hintergrund macht mich nervös ! Nehmt mir bitte Google raus.Auf dem Chinesensmartphone ertrage ich es noch. Und um sicherer zu sein, habe ich nun auf dem ACER Malwarebytes gekauft bis 08/2026 läuft das Abonnement. Mc Afee hat bis 08/2025 VPN als Abonnement auf Acer und Xiamonie. Ich fühle mich dabei sicherer. Bitte versteht es nicht als Dummheit, aber dieses Techunternehmen ist mir nicht angenehm genug.

Freundliche Grüße an Euch alle, bitte um Verstandniss !!........Michael der Techhasser........llllaccchhhh.....
