But i would like to integrate to the add-in installation the function who can add a rule to the windows registry for preventing the add-on too be removed or disabled by user.
Or if it’s possible to add a password who prevent Users from removing disabling the add-on
I hope to get help from advanced developers, Thanks to everyone and Happy New Year 2019
That’s not something you can do from an add-on. You could possibly do something toward that by having an OS specific installer that also installs the extension.
strange because i use the method for the Chrome version and it work, users cant remove the add-on,only if they know how to use the win registry but for teens, and regular user,s it’s almost impossible !
but for the Firefox version i don’t know ho to make the reg file, for use with windows registry.
it has to be something like this i think for the reg file…
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions]
Using sideloading you can make it so a user can’t remove an extension. They can however still disable it.
Alternatively you can use an enterprise policy called “Extensions” on about:policies#documentation to install and lock an extension. There’s also a policy to disable add-on management overall.
