Hi,
Short version:
I'd like to place a customized xulstore.json file somewhere in the
installation path and have it copied into fresh Firefox profiles as
they're created.
Long version:
After some reading and trial & error, I've found that I can populate
most settings with a setup like this:
* INSTALL_DIR\defaults\pref\local-settings.js
** point to a custom config file (mozilla.cfg)
* INSTALL_DIR\browser\override.ini
** to disable profile migrations
* INSTALL_DIR\mozilla.cfg
** configure the other options
Unfortunately, I've yet to find a way to set the browser window to max
size or display the Bookmarks Toolbar through a configuration setting in
a file within the INSTALL_DIR path. Instead, I've found that for current
versions (tested on v46.x and 47.0) that the settings are saved in
FIREFOX_PROFILE_FOLDER\xulstore.json.
I was hoping that I could simply drop a customized version of that file
into INSTALL_DIR\defaults\profile\ like I did in the past, but so far no
such luck.
I went so far as to just pepper a test installation with copies of the
file to see if it would be copied over and no luck with any of these
locations:
INSTALL_DIR\defaults\profile\xulstore.json
INSTALL_DIR\defaults\preferences\xulstore.json
INSTALL_DIR\defaults\pref\xulstore.json
INSTALL_DIR\browser\defaults\profile\xulstore.json
INSTALL_DIR\browser\defaults\preferences\xulstore.json
At that point I was doing the equivalent of a blindfolder dart toss, so
I'm not too surprised I didn't find success.
Thanks in advance for reading this and for offering any
tips/suggestions. I think I've come close to exhausting what I know to do.
