I thought that the “xpinstall.enabled = false” will disable the ability to 
install add-ons. How are you able to still install add-ons? I don’t actually 
have the xpinstall.enabled preference setting set in Firefox. I have a 
customer, that re-developed his add-on with the new Webextension API and when 
he tries to intall it, he gets the “can’t install because it’s not verified” 
error.

Was it a WebExtension or a legacy add-on?

I just verified that settings xpinstall.enabled to false allowed a WebExtension 
to be installed even though it is not signed.

Legacy add-ons are no longer supported.

That preference only works on the ESR.

Is there a work around for add-ons not having to be verified with Mozilla? The 
preference setting “xpinstall.signature.required = false” used to work prior to 
Firefox Quantum. Are all Firefox add-ons required to be verified thru Mozilla?
