Using the following doesn't do anything to the about:config settings in firefox:

mozilla.cfg with just the following:

// lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);

This doesn't change the setting from true to false or dither it out as locked? Does this method not work for version 48?

I do have the local-settings.js file with the following under defaults/pref:

// pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg"); pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);

Help!!!

I can't believe it, the problem was I needed to be using a single ' in the js file not regular double quotes " that I see on just about everything I have searched on. Arrrgh, very frustrating. It works now.  :-)

Have you always had the // at the beginning of those lines? In JavaScript, that would turn the line from a command into a comment, which should deactivate it. ??

Everything I have read says to comment out the first line of the file...is that not correct?

// is on its own line but the formatting in the question changed it to the same line.

Oh, okay.

I'm still on Firefox 47 and haven't heard about any changes related to autoconfig in Firefox 48, so hopefully someone else knows what's going on.
