## Workarounds for Unsupported Browsers
|
|
|
|
This extension works with unsupported browsers, but requires additional steps. Please see below.
|
|
|
|
### Regular Firefox Tutorial

|
|
#### How to use CRX Installer with regular Firefox
|
|
Complete guide for disabling signature verification in standard Firefox
|
|
|
|
In the regular version of Firefox, setting `xpinstall.signatures.required` to `false` does not work correctly. This document explains how to disable this restriction.
|
|
|
|
1. **Identify the path of omni.ja**
|
|
|
|
omni.ja is located in the Firefox installation directory.
|
|
|
|
The typical path is as follows:
|
|
```
|
|
C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/omni.ja
|
|
C:/Program Files (x86)/Mozilla Firefox/omni.ja
|
|
/Applications/Firefox.app/omni.ja
|
|
/usr/lib/firefox/omni.ja
|
|
/usr/lib64/firefox/omni.ja
|
|
/opt/firefox/omni.ja
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also check the location of the installation directory from the `about:support` page.
|
|
|
|
2. **Patch omni.ja**
|
|
|
|
Download [omniPatcher.py](moz-extension://4b8907c7-9352-42d6-b392-6692b947b0b7/docs/omniPatcher.py) and run it as follows:
|
|
```
|
|
python omniPatcher.py /path/to/omni.ja
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Remove startup cache**
|
|
|
|
To apply the changes, open `about:support` and delete the startup cache from the button at the top right.
|
|
|
|
This allows you to disable signature verification in the regular version of Firefox based on the value of `xpinstall.signatures.required`.
