[Mozilla Enterprise] Thunderbird 68.2.0 preinstalling add-ons

[Osdoba, Sascha]

Hi Pete,

it must be XPI files with the ID as name but deployed to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\distribution\extensions” and that works for me

Regards,

Sascha

I found the same lack of documentation. Try this example:

reg add
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mozilla\Thunderbird\Extensions"
/v "marcoagpinto at mail.telepac.pt" /d "%PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Thunderbird\extensions\marcoagpinto at mail.telepac.pt.xpi" /t REG_SZ

In my experience, it's required with Firefox and not always with Thunderbird; and with Thunderbird, some extensions require it and others don't. So I think there's still areas about this new method that I'm not yet understanding.
