Hi,

I use "%PROGRAMFILES%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -install-global-theme mytheme.jar to install a theme silently. But the new installed theme is not the "used theme"

Is there a switch to choose the used theme ?

I create my own Default Profile, pack it up to an archive (you could use 7z or zip or whatever) and let it extract to the default profile after Firefox get installed :)

Just install Firefox and start it like this:

"C:\program files\mozilla firefox\firefox.exe" -profile defaults\profile"

Now it will be started using default profile, install:

all the themes you want

all the extensions you want

all the searchplugins you want

add the tweaks (about:config) etc.

extensions & themes will only be applied when Firefox is restarted, ofcourse you start it up again with the command given above!

Set the theme you want and done.

export:

"Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile"

and

"Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins"

to a sfx archive.

Done!

PS: when installing searchplugins, they might be placed in Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile\searchplugins, just cut & paste them to "Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins".
