Kalju Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 If You use CCleaner, it cleans everything, what is needed.If You really want to clean manually. then You need to know, where are cache files stored.Usually it is:C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ - user data C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ - firefox cacheor%Appdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles - user data %Localappdata%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles - firefox cacheYou must find folder => cache2 => entries => delete whole cache2 folder if it is there, but it is enough, if You delete only all entries there.(better - wipe ie use CCleaner and overwrite 1x with random data) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbleck Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 use a separate profile whenever visiting those sites. Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing changes.u could just delete the whole cache of the selected profile manually then, without searching for specific data Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalju Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Do not take it very deeply into heart - you will never be able to permanently erase the entire cache and other junk.For example, these portable gadgets, which are offered here and anywhere, it is desperate, they record all cache and other junk directly to the hard drive, which you can not be otherwise disposed of in any way, if only use periodically the 'Wipe free space ".But I want to ask you - how many of you know it all, and how many cleans this huge rubbish at all?An enormous amount of rubbish occurs when you are upgrading programs. You mean that old stuff will overwritten? Good joke. Something will overwritten only, when the information free space no longer exists on the disk.Your hard drive is never empty, only you do not usually know it.

However, this will cause Firefox to forget every site at browser shutdown — not just specific site/s. :(Nonetheless, it is a great idea to check (enable) all other options at the above Options window.
