I am trying to get Menu Editor 1.2.7 to work globally for all users. I have added the .xpi to the extensions folder and it is not being installed auto-magically.

I would like to have Menu Editor installed for all users. I attempted to put the .xpi file in c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\extensions with the expectation that the user would be prompted to install.

You need to rename the XPI file to the (GU)ID of the extension as listed in the file install.rdf or just install the extension in a profile and copy the file or folder from that profile to the extensions folder.
