User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:97.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/97.0
Steps to reproduce:
Windows10, I have firefox 97.0.1 (64 bits) installed.
I added a C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Mozilla Firefox\distribution\policies.json
containing :
--------------cut-here-----------
// Cf https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md
// https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/releases
{
"policies": {
"DisableAppUpdate" : true,
"AppAutoUpdate" : false,
"ManualAppUpdateOnly" : true,
// "AppUpdateURL" : "https://disney.com",
"BackgroundAppUpdate" : false,
"DisableFirefoxAccounts" : true,
"DisablePocket" : true,
"DisableTelemetry" : true,
// Pour verifier que ce fichier fonctionne :
"BlockAboutConfig": true
}
}
--------------cut-here-----------
Actual results:
But I still continue to see popups about firefox updates, and about:config is responding.
Expected results:
Never seen again updates invitation popups.
[Please don't tell it's bad to not enable automatic updates]

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Enterprise Policies' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thunderbird also pops up an invite to update every two minutes. Is this policies.json file supposed to keep it calm also ?

// Cf https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md
// https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/releases
// "AppUpdateURL" : "https://disney.com",
JSON does not support comments. This will invalidate the entire JSON content.
