<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Here’s an interesting situation: We’ve recently created a USMT Windows User Profile Backup and Restore package via SCCM and that works fine, however there’s a catch 22 with firefox….<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-bottom:12.0pt">Usually I keep a baseline version of the package via the Software Center and the users can update the browser via the ABOUT menu.
<br>
<br>
However if a windows profile is restored to a new system (with AppData) and then firefox is installed from the Software Center, of course it’s old and it sees the newer profile as incompatible.<br>
<br>
so far the only solution I got is to go ahead and update the baseline version of my Firefox package.<br>
<br>
So here’s my questions:<br>
<br>
1. Is it possible somehow to load a new profile onto an old Firefox?<br>
2. Is it possible to force Firefox to look for updates as soon as someone tries to open it?<br>
3. If 2. is possible, would it fetch the update before prompting the user to create a new profile?<br>
<br>
Please advise, this seems to be a none-issue with Chrome post-user mig.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
