I have created a policies.json and I want to put it into the windows installer. I am using the documentation on how to repackage the windows installer https://support.mozilla.org/af/kb/repackaging-windows-installer But I do not know where the policies.json file should do. Can I create a distribution folder inside the installer with the policies.json so it will use this file to configure when installing? If so where should it go, at the root of the installer (where the setup.exe is) or somewhere else?

You are spot on.

Basically, you will unzip the installer using the Repackage the Windows installer documentation. This will give you a new folder called "Core". This is the Firefox installation that will be installed on a computer that will run the installer that you will be making.

You just need to set up your policies.json files in that "Core" folder, just as you would with a regular installation of Firefox.

Then you complete the remaining steps in the Repackage the Windows installer documentation to finish creating the installer that you can run on a computer.

Hope this helps.

So I should create a distribution folder in the Core folder, put the policies.json file in it and then repackage the windows installer?

That's correct.

Basically, the core folder is what will be installed when you run the new repackaged installer. So if you put the distribution folder in the core folder, it will be included in the new installer.

Thanks. Noticing the link to 7zSD.sfx in the Repackaging the Windows Installer documentation https://support.mozilla.org/af/kb/repackaging-windows-installer

does not work. Do you know where i can get this 7zSD.sfx file?

Oh! Sorry about that!

It appears that someone moved the file without changing that instruction page. You can download the sfx file from here. Also, the command in step 6 should be the following:

copy /B 7zSD.Win32.sfx+app.tag+app.7z our_new_installer.exe

That should work for you now.
