+**IMPORTANT**: This file is in active development along with the policies in Firefox. Make sure to check the compatibility section to see if a policy is available in a specific version of Firefox. To get the policy information that corresponds to a specific release, go to https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/releases.
Policies can be specified using the Group Policy templates on Windows (https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/tree/master/windows), configuration profiles on macOS (https://github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/tree/master/mac), or by creating a file called `policies.json`. On Windows, create a directory called `distribution` where the EXE is located and place the file there. On Mac, the file goes into `Firefox.app/Contents/Resources/distribution`. On Linux, the file goes into `firefox/distribution`, where `firefox` is the installation directory for firefox, which varies by distribution.

+### Certificates | ImportEnterpriseRoots
+
+Trust certificates that have been added to the operating system certificate store by a user or administrator.
-The Install Certificates key by default will search for certificates in the locations listed below.
-Starting in Firefox 65 you can specify a fully qualified path including UNC. (See cert3.der and cert4.pem, in example).
+See https://support.mozilla.org/kb/setting-certificate-authorities-firefox for more detail.
-**Be advised if you wish to load a certificate from a UNC path you must use double backslashes.**

+### Certificates | Install
-If Firefox does not find something at your fully qualified path, it will search the default directories.
+Install certificates into the Firefox certificate store. If only a filename is specified, Firefox searches for the file in the following locations:
-Certificates can be located in the following locations:
- Windows
- %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Certificates
- %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Certificates
- /usr/lib64/mozilla/certificates
- ~/.mozilla/certificates
+Starting with Firefox 65, Firefox 60.5 ESR, a fully qualified path can be used, including UNC paths. You should use the native path style for your operating system. We do not support using %USERPROFILE% or other environment variables on Windows.
+
+If you are specifying the path in the policies.json file on Windows, you need to escape your backslashes (`\\`) which means that for UNC paths, you need to escape both (`\\\\`). If you use group policy, you only need one backslash.
+
+Certificates are installed using the trust string `CT,CT,`.
+Binary (DER) and ASCII (PEM) certificates are both supported.
+
+**Compatibility:** Firefox 64, Firefox ESR 64\
