Firefox: when you go to about:preferences
you may see
Your browser is being managed by your organization
In about:policies
you can then see activated policies.
How to disable those policies on Linux? I did not find a decent web resource; hence this quick post. According to Firefox docs, a certain policies.json
defines them:
This file goes into a directory called
distribution
within the Firefox installation directory.
In my case, I found this file via
sudo find / -name "policies.json"
and then removed it:
sudo rm /etc/firefox/policies/policies.json
After that, about:policies
showed
The Enterprise Policies service is inactive.
