How do I automatically restore my personalized search settings or the default search settings after system-wide override?

At my workplace mozilla, I have a number of custom search engines. On a nearly daily basis, they get overwritten by some system-wide default. I can restore them manually by restoring the default search engines in the search settings, quitting mozilla, then replacing the search.json.mozlz4 file that gets created in my firefox profile folder by a copy of this file with my personalized search engines (luckily I had a backup copy of search.json.mozlz4).

Is there a way to "restore default search engines" automatically, through some config file setting/copying? It's both very tiring not to have my search engines, and to "restore default search engines" manually on a nearly daily basis.

Thanks!

Hi, Sorry no. Since your work place has configured things that way continue with what you are doing or contact the Office Manager or SyS Admin to discuss your issue. And no there is not a config file but you can make a copy of your Profile and reinsert after you have it set up when you experience issues. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/back-and-restore-information-firefox-profile

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
