This issue has been solved. See solution.

Hello,

We have just deployed SEP 12.1 across a few hundred public-use computers. Now, each time a user runs Firefox, an add-in prompt appears asking them to enable/disable the add-in and then restart Firefox. Annoying. I know that the add-in can be controlled from the SEPM console, but I am past that now. SEP 12.1 was already deployed and disabling it in the console now would do nothing for the existing installs. I am not the SEPM manager and I should have tested the install more throughly. How can I enable the add-in for all users of a computer, automatically.

Thanks

I don't believe there is a way from SEPM.

This would need to be done via third party way, such as gpo.

The note at the bottom of this KB article leads me to believe extra steps outside of SEPM need to be taken to do it:

Check this KB article on same behaviour with IE:

Seems to be the issue of IE/Firefox and GPO is the workaround.
