No means "no!"

Add a setting to disable this obnoxious user-disrespecting behavior, please!

Hello

Make Firefox your default browser
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/make-firefox-your-default-browser

You want ? not check the default browser

By way of illustration, i have 2 Firefox versions
An Firefox, it's my main browser
An another Firefox , it's not my main browser and i want not check the default browser

You can try

Firefox policies https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates
DontCheckDefaultBrowser https://mozilla.github.io/policy-templates/#dontcheckdefaultbrowser

The Enterprise Policy Generator https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/enterprise-policy-generator helps to create the configuration file


Configure check for default browser on startup
{
  "policies": {
    "DontCheckDefaultBrowser": true
  }
}

Copy/paste the code into Notepad
Save
Type: All files
policies.json

Then
Create the distribution folder
Move policies.json to the distribution folder
Move the distribution folder to the folder where Firefox is installed

Application Binary: Shows where Firefox is installed.

Restart Firefox

Your browser is being managed by your organization, that's normal

Enterprise Policies: This shows you if your browser is being managed by Windows Group Policy or a policies.json file. If enterprise policies are managing Firefox, clicking on Active will show you a list of the policies that are currently active on Firefox.
