Force-Pinning Extension doesn't Appear to Work (GPO in Microsoft AD)

I am having the same issue as this other user here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/17wvuwh/help_pinning_extension_in_firefox_with_gpo/

Preliminaries -- Initially (before trying to force-pin), I had these GPOs enabled:

Extensions to Install -> https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/file/4410896/bitwarden_password_manager-2024.12.4.xpi

Prevent extensions from being disabled or removed ->

(Those GPOs above all work.)

What I'm trying to do: Force-pin Bitwarden.

I believe I've followed the documentation correctly (except for not including a "*" case): https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/#extensionsettings

I've enabled this GPO with this value:

Extension Management ->

{

 "{446900e4-71c2-419f-a6a7-df9c091e268b}": {
   "default_area": "navbar"
 }

}

After running various "GPUpdate"s and whatnot, the option to uncheck "Pin to toolbar" is still available to click.

I've verified in "about:policies#active" that the JSON item appears next to "ExtensionSettings" and that there are no errors listed in the "Errors" tab.

I've also verified that it appears in the correct location in the Registry.

Since another user had the same issue (Reddit link above), I figured it'd be a good idea to check in with y'all to see if we are missing something.

Thanks for your help!
