Extention(xpi): Installation issue
I need help in installing & configuring a 3rd Party Plugin with extension .XPI. I need to install this Plugin for all users so that they can use it . I don't want the user to install or have a prompt when they login. This plugin has to install silently on the machine with no intervention from end user. I wanted this to be deployed from Active Directory GPO or some other way so all users have access to the Plugin from Password Management Pro. My OS is windows 2012 and Firefox version is 54.0.1. Kindly revert back for any clarifications. I saw couple of articles to do it from Registry but that didn't help. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Adding_extensions_using_the_Windows_registry

In about:config you can turn off xpinstall.signatures.required to false might work. However I would not recommend this since there have been a number of security issues.
xpinstall.signatures.required is false will only work with Firefox 52 ESR and not with the current Firefox 55 (and previous 54) release. If this is about installing a plugin and not an extension then you will definitely need the ESR release.
Why-do-Java-Silverlight-Adobe-Acrobat-and-other-plugins-no longer work.
I'm not sure whether you will be able to install the extension silently without confirmation.
