Not Clearing Firefox cache if it is not in the default folder

[oreh 0]

Does not clean Firefox cache if it is not in the default folder.

For example in M:\Cache\ not in C:\Documents and Settings\...\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxx.default\Cache\

It is NOT a BUG.

 

CCleaner does not bother with obscure locations, it uses defaults.

 

My Firefox caches are on a secondary drive - ultra obscure,

but CCleaner does clean them because I replaced the correct default folder with a Junction point that reroutes to my caches.

You can clean the Firefox cache folder by adding it to the Option, Include list; and enabling the Advanced, Custom File and Folders; option.

 

Just be careful not to delete too much.

much easier to use custom location feature (works for chrome and firefox)
