I use autoconf.js in path .../Mozilla Firefox/defaults/pref/ with

pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.filename","mozilla.cfg");

But i want to use lan or local path for mozilla.cfg. Like this "D:/mozilla.cfg" etc.

When i start firefox with this autoconf.js

pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); pref("general.config.filename","C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/defaults/pref/mozilla.cfg");

It returns error with mozilla.cfg

Hi,

You don't have to set the path. Please see this. mozilla.cfg has to be placed in the Firefox installation directory, and local-settings.js inside installation directory\defaults\pref. If you are running Firefox on a LAN from a single installation then this needs to be done only on the PC where Firefox is installed.
