I am looking to upgrade our current Firefox ESR 17.0.8 users to 24.2.0. I am using a similar packaging methodology where I include some a channel-prefs.js and user.js in the /defaults folder within the application. This worked well in 17.0.8 to auto configure the user profile with desired settings. Unfortunately, after applying the update, I am seeing the pop-up to set Firefox as the default browser which was disabled in 17.0.8 and also disabled in the preference file within the 24.2.0 package. Is anyone having the same issue? Here are my config files...
user.js
user_pref("toolkit.telemetry.enabled", false);
user_pref("toolkit.telemetry.prompted", 2);
user_pref("toolkit.telemetry.rejected", true);
user_pref("network.proxy.autoconfig_url", "http://proxyaddress");
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 2);
user_pref("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies", false);
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
user_pref("browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser",false);
channel-prefs.js
