I've tried to delete the Old Firefox Data file and it keeps coming back in my Trash bucket (iMac). I can't seem to get rid of it. Please help!

Hi Dr. Bill, for background, Firefox creates the Old Firefox Data folder on the Mac desktop when it runs the Refresh feature, sometimes called a tune-up. If you don't need the folder at that point, it is safe to delete it.

You mentioned that the folder keeps coming back to trash, not the Desktop. As a Windows person, I don't have any tips on why the Mac wastebasket isn't working the way you expect. If you don't get a good answer here, you could try Apple's support forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac (scroll down for different models)
