Hi Dimas,

Install with the Mozilla Maintenance Service enabled using an INI file:
Firefox Setup 78.7.0esr.exe" -Parameters /INI="<somepath>\firefox.ini”
My firefox.ini contents:
[Install]
DesktopShortcut=false
StartMenuShortcuts=true
QuickLaunchShortcut=false
TaskbarShortcut=false
MaintenanceService=true
RemoveDistributionDir=false

I migrated to policies.json long ago - copy a policies.json out to C:\Program 
Files\Mozilla Firefox\distribution after creating aforementioned distribution 
folder. Simplified text for just this setting:
{
  "policies": {
    "AppAutoUpdate": true,
    "DisableAppUpdate": false
  }
}

Fully documentation here (thanks Mike Kaply!) 
https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates

For autoconfig - install using ini file method then I think the prefs are:
lockPref("app.update.auto", true);
lockPref("app.update.mode", 1);
lockPref("app.update.enabled", true);
lockPref("app.update.silent", true);

Thank you,

Subject: EXTERNAL: [Mozilla Enterprise] Enable "Use a background service to 
install updates"

Hi,

In many computers we have the check "Use a background service to install 
updates" disabled and, as users haven't privilege permissions, Firefox can't 
auto-update.

The Maintenance service is installed and if I manually check "Use a background 
service to install updates" Firefox auto-updates at the next restart. But is it 
possible to enable this preference with policies?

Thx
