I have used Firefox off and on for several years, but I would like to find a way to delete all my data on all my devices that I have signed into. Then install Firefox and make it like I have never used itl

I want to start fresh with a new install of Firefox , like it is the first time I have ever installed it. I do not want to refresh, because I will be getting my previous data.

Firefox uses two locations for the Firefox profile folder. One location for your personal data (e.g. bookmarks) and another location for temporary files like the disk cache.

Location used for the main profile that keeps your personal data (Root Directory on about:profiles).

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>

Location used for the disk cache and other temporary files (Local Directory on about:profiles).
