You can possibly achieve this by using a policies.json file via the ExtensionSettings policy. You can also use it to block access to about:config (BlockAboutConfig) and prevent Safe Mode (DisableSafeMode).
I have added: gpedit.msc I try add options "Lock" for Kaspersky Protection. But I don't know how can I correctly create list extension...? When I tryed write "Kaspersky Protection" or "ID Extension" nothing do. Extension is not locked.
What I do wrong?

As shown under https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md#extensionsettings
To obtain an extension ID, install the extension and go to about:support. You will see the ID in the Extensions section.
I did file: "policies.json" and created folder "distribution" in: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
For KASPERSKY: policies.json has: {
"policies": {
"Extensions": {
"Locked": ["[email protected]"]
}
}
} Work correcty :-)
But someone can show me how correctly add content: {
"policies": {
"DNSOverHTTPS": {
"Enabled": true,
"Locked": true,
}
}
} I can't do creat corectly file structure :-( *.json.
The problem was resolved :-)
{
"policies": {
"DisablePocket": true,
"Extensions": {
"Locked": ["[email protected]"]
},
"DNSOverHTTPS": {
"Enabled": true,
"Locked": true
}
}
}
If You want block extension You need, "@mail" you can use... about:support And next You have table: Extensions, which include ID Extension "@mail".
Hi
You forgot to remove the trailing comma in "Locked": true, A comma is only mandatory as a separator and there shouldn't be a comma before a '}'
You also need only one policies section, so you need to add the other rules under the main policies section and separate each rule with a comma.
{
"policies": {
"Extensions": {
"Locked": ["[email protected]"]
},
"DNSOverHTTPS": {
"Enabled": true,
"Locked": true
}
}
}
