Firefox 12: Deployed Extensions to All Users still need to be enabled
I am packaging FireFox 12 (aka v4) using Wise.
I've got the CCK Wizard, which I used to generate a custom extension that would lock down the browser.
I was able to add it to the INSTALLDIR/extensions, and it is found by each user's Extension manager.
The problem is that this extension starts off as DISABLED, and needs manual intervention to enable it when a new user logs in.
I've scoured online, and found no info about how to start it ENABLED; they all talk about having the extension available, which it is.
Any thoughts on this?

For Re-Packaging Firefox, you can follow this link:

You could try to put it into INSTALLDIR\distribution\bundles
Then the addon should be enabled and also be invisible in the extensions manager, making the user unable to uninstall it
