While I’m glad to see this, I’m wondering why you chose the path you did. Wrapping an EXE install into an MSI doesn’t really gain us anything, does it? Those of us who need MSIs need them because we customize the install to our specific needs which cannot be done by simply adding a command line switch. Namely, we use the CCK2 to build a bunch of preferences and want to streamline that into the installation. I realize the need for this may be going away in the long term with the addition of group policy support, but I’m sure it’s a long way off before it is feature complete.
Marc From: Enterprise [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Romain Testard Sent: Wednesday, November 28, 2018 8:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Mozilla Enterprise] Mozilla official MSI installers available on Nightly Hi all, We recently started to make MSI installers (wrappers of the full exe installer) available as part of our build/release process in order to help make Windows enterprise deployments simpler. These are now available on Nightly and will be riding the trains to release with Firefox 65 (will also be available on our next ESR). You can find documentation here<https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-customization-msi-installers> (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-customization-msi-installers) that helps understand how to customize Firefox installations with the MSI installers and it would be great if people on this list who find MSI installers valuable on their deployments could start testing it. Feedback can be provided on this list if valuable for all, on bugzilla<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox&component=Installer> for technical issues or directly to me otherwise. Thanks for your help! Romain
