Thx for the answers. So...<br>
<br>
- In all cases (new versions, x32 to x64, ...) you recommend to
uninstall the actual version prior to install the new one (so never
updating).<br>
<br>
- To migrate 52 to 68 I need to install first version 60. Is it
possible to update the profile without user interaction or I've to
install 60, wait users to open Firefox, and after that install 68?
How can I do it with SCCM?<br>
<br>
- To avoid problems with new profiles I need to set the
MOZ_LEGACY_PROFILES. How do you do it with SCCM? Executing a script
with a "SET MOZ_LEGACY_PROFILES=1" for example?<br>
<br>
- Actually we use AutoConfig and I'd like to migrate to Group
Policies or use policies.json.<br>
With AutoConfig and batch scripting it's possible to detect the
Firefox version and do different things depending on it (for example
installing one or another extensions for compatible reasons). Is it
possible with new methods?<br>
- Before the end of the migrating process we will have some
computers with version 52, others with 60 and others with 68. Which
problems can I have? Do you think is it better to continue using
AutoConfig before we have all computers migrated to version 68?<br>
- Now we've the autoconfig file (mozilla.cfg) in a shared web
server, so every computer load before starting. If we need to change
a preference is very easy, and we only need to modify mozilla.cfg
and restart Firefox. Is it not possible to have the policies.json
file in a shared web server like this?<br>
<br>
Do you think this could be a good migrating process?<br>
1. Uninstall 52 > Install 60<br>
2. Uninstall 60 > Install 68 x64<br>
3. Remove AutoConfig and use GPO<br>
<br>
Thx!<br>

<div>Yeah, definitely need to go to 60 before 68 or you will
lose history/bookmarks (changes to the database).</div>

<div dir="ltr">Also, the change to x64 will likely run afoul
of "one profiles per installation," where by installing to a
different location (%programfiles% vs %programfiles(x86)%)
will cause Firefox to create a NEW user profile, per user.
Setting the environmental variable "MOZ_LEGACY_PROFILES" (to
1, or anything) will avoid this, but I don't recall if it
made it to GPO.<br clear="all">
