can you please help me with that. I know settings are going to prefs.js file in user profile. How can make this permanent for many users.

Hi gaurav3012,

Permanent change would be locking preferences: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

However importing many users profiles to different computers may require a new profile for each user.

Currently there is an option to import bookmarks from other browsers, but not preferences.

Update preferences can be read about here: Configuration Options for Updates

Firefox ESR is also another version of Firefox that is meant for Enterprise environments https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/ that mostly has their support on their mailing list.
