I am in Canada.
The Linux Mint is US version with the region and language is also set to US.
Purged the LM version of Firefox 82.0.2, including the two /usr/lib/ firefox folders.
Blocked installation of the same in Synaptic.
Downloaded the US version from the Mozilla repository and installed it in /opt/firefox.
Replaced old Firefox symlinks to point to /opt/firefox.
Opened prefs.js and noticed that "browser.region.update.region" is still set to CA.
Created opt/firefox/defaults/pref/autoconfig.js
Code: Select all
pref("general.config.filename", "firefox.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0);
Code: Select all
// firefox.cfg IMPORTANT: Start your code on the 2nd line
pref("browser.backspace_action", 2);
pref("permissions.default.shortcuts", 2);
pref("browser.region.update.region", "US");
pref(" = in cfg.
user_pref(" = prefs.js
user_prefs(" = user.js
