Hi,

first steps with "policies.json" with FF 60.1.0 ESR. I'm trying to set 
"SearchEngines" and it does not work.

Placed the file as described 
(https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/README.md) in 
directory "distribution" in installdir of FF:

{
   "policies": {
     "SearchEngines": {
       "Add": [
         {
           "Name": "StartPage",
           "URLTemplate": 
"https://startpage.com/do/search?lui=deutsch&language=deutsch&cat=web&query=%s",
         }
       ],
       "Default": "StartPage",
       "PreventInstalls": false
     }
   }
}

After a restart of FF (and alternatively deleting existing profile, 
because with autoconfig.js it only worked on new profile) "StartPage" is 
not defined as search engine nor the default.

Am I missing something? Or is something wrong, e.g. URLTemplate?

Regards
Thomas
