P.S.

I got the DisableAppUpdate policy working with the policies.json file in Firefox Portable 71.0 32-bit.

* C:\FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox\distribution\policies.json

However, I had to remove the following registry keys before I got it working.

* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Mozilla
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Mozilla

Here is how to test if the DisableAppUpdate policy is working.
