No it is not bold,  it is back to Standard and on 5 on next restart.

But from my understanding, if I set in the Policy
Don't allow proxy settings to be changed.

Disabled

It will not become a lockpreference and the user should be able to switch the 
setting.
Or will the Group Policy always overwrite every setting, although it is not 
makred as lockPrefernce?

Subject: Re: [Mozilla Enterprise] Proxy Settings switch back to "Use System 
Proxy Settings" on restart

After the policy is set back to 5, is it bold (meaning it's a user set 
preference)?

The policy code only sets default preference and locked preferences, it does 
not set user preferences.

So it won't ever cause a preference to be bold in about:config. If it's bold, 
it means the user changed it.

Hello Enterprise-Group,

hope some of you can help me here, as I could till now not find the reason, why 
that happens.

We use now the Group Policy feature with FF 60.1 ESR and set the Proxy Settings 
to “Use System Proxy settings”:
[cid:[email protected]]

We explicitly Disabled the feature
Don't allow proxy settings to be changed.

Disabled


But we unfortunately got feedback from some  users where the users changed 
their settings, but on the next start of Firefox the setting is back to “Use 
system proxy settings”.

Interesting is after the change in the GUI for the proxy I can see the change 
in the about:config for this session:
[cid:[email protected]]
But as said on next start the setting for network.proxy.type is set back to 5.
The other changes stay as value for network.proxy.autoconfig_url is still 
available.

Anyone else observes this problem or has an idea what could trigger that?
