Tom AZ Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Can anyone tell me how to clean cookies and cache files from Firefox Portable on my HD -- or doesn't FF Portable create these things?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 12, 2009 Moderators Share Posted August 12, 2009 Tom, If you are running Firefox Portable from PortableApps.com then no it does not place files on your hard drive (thus the "portable") however if you are running Firefox 3.0 or older then you can set the Firefox to ask you to delete files at the end of every session (which is what I used to do) I am currently running Firefox Portable 3.5 and while it does not give me the option to choose to delete or not delete at the end of every session I do have it set to always delete at the end of sessions. However, again, these files are not on your hard drive but are on the drive from which you run firefox Portable.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Tom AZ Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 Actually, I'm using FF 3.5.2 from PortableApps.com on my hard drive only. So, do I understand correctly that there are no cache or cookie files to clean with this type of usage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalj Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi tom. Read this topic. It might help. I am currently running Firefox Portable 3.5 and while it does not give me the option to choose to delete or not delete at the end of every session I do have it set to always delete at the end of sessions. You still can. It's just like the old way but you have to configure it from the "drop-down" box. Piriform Software User Guides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
