I have tried to reinstall Firefox multiple times but it doesn't help at all; I keep getting Firefox.bak back every single time and it is annoying me to a great extent. How do I get rid of it once and for all?

Note that you are using a Firefox 24 Nightly build.

Does this also happen with the current Firefox 21 release?

In which directory is this file created?
