Extract it once complete.Ĭopy the extracted files to the desktop of your Domain Controller. Under the latest release, download the policy_templates_XXX.zip.
Step 2: Download Firefox ADMX and ADML Files A restart is required, otherwise you will bang your head against a wall trying to figure out why the policies aren’t applying (ask me how I know…) It’s free and can be downloaded from here.Īfter installing, reboot your computer. Once the computer object is moved into the OU, open CMD on the test computer and run: gpupdate /forceīefore you can apply any enterprise-level policies on a Mozilla Firefox browser, you must install Firefox Enterprise. Once testing is complete, you can move the group policy to your primary computers’ OU and move the test computer object back into it’s respective OU.įor this guide, my OU is called Browser GPO. That way when you create the Firefox Settings GPO it gets applied to only that 1 computer. You will then want to move your computer object (or a test computer) into that OU.
Right click an existing folder > New Organization Unit and give it a name. Open Active Directory Users and Computers. Otherwise, you might apply some unwanted changes to your existing employees browsers. Hopefully it helps, and let’s get started!īefore we get started, you should first create an Organization Unit in AD specifically for testing these new policies out. I couldn’t find any step-by-step or how to guides on how to do this correctly, so I decided to write one myself as I set this up. You can’t simply paste the extension ID into the settings like you can with Chrome/Edge you have to paste a perfectly formatted json code into the policy settings. However, configuring the ability to block all extensions (except for approved extensions) is a lot more difficult. Download the ADMX & ADML files, add to the PolicyDefinitions folder on your domain controller, create a GPO, and apply it to a target computer. If you’ve configured Chrome Enterprise or Edge Enterprise in a corporate environment, then the procedure is pretty similar. This will allow you to set corporate browser policies for all Firefox Enterprise browser users, such as allowing, blocking, or whitelisting certain extensions. In this guide, I’m going to show you how to create a Firefox browser Group Policy (GPO) in Active Directory.
