Thx!
I had a lock...
...but this are the first lines of my prefs.js in the user dir:
user_pref("accessibility.typeaheadfind.flashBar", 0);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.addon-background-update-timer",
1458736348);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.background-update-timer", 1458772121);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.blocklist-background-update-timer",
1458736708);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.browser-cleanup-thumbnails", 1458771231);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.experiments-update-timer", 1458736588);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.microsummary-generator-update-timer",
1346768798);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.search-engine-update-timer", 1458757841);
user_pref("app.update.lastUpdateTime.xpi-signature-verification", 1458736468);
user_pref("app.update.migrated.updateDir", true);
user_pref("avira.safe_search.installed", "[\"safesearchplus\"]");
The only prefs with a nightly channel are:
user_pref("extensions.checkCompatibility.37.0a", true);
user_pref("extensions.checkCompatibility.nightly", true);
user_pref("extensions.updatechannel.channel", "nightly");
user_pref("extensions.updatechan...@blueprintit.co.uk.install-event-fired",
true);
In c:\Program Files\Firefox Developer Edition\ ...
is the file update-settings.ini with:
[Settings]
ACCEPTED_MAR_CHANNEL_IDS=firefox-mozilla-aurora
And in \defaults\pref\channel-prefs.js is:
pref("app.update.channel", "aurora");
And it updates to nightly anyway immediately!
