I expected to be able to download the Windows ADMX and ADML files, place them into Windows\PolicyDefinitions folder, run gpupdate /force, then use Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) to turn off this setting in Firefox 128. I also tried using the Enterprise Policy Generator extension to create a policies.json file that included this setting, but that didn't work. Please advise when this setting is exposed in the policy template, or how this can be done otherwise. Is this because the setting is not exposed to policy at all? It isn't listed in the policy templates documentation.
