FF 13 leaves an empty folder on Local

veyselcelik - June 14, 2012 - 11:44am

I've just downloaded FirefoxPortable_13.0_English.paf and install it on a folder on my desktop. I launched FirefoxPortable and then, i closed it. And it left an empty folder here.

C:\Users\Asus\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox

What can be the problem?

I'm using Windows 7 64bit. And I have never installed normal non-portable firefox.

Possibly machine-dependent?

I had noticed this previously, but when I deleted the offending folder to verify and re-ran FFP, that folder isn't recreated on my machine. However, I do have a Mozilla folder persisting in %APPDATA%.

I've just realised that it

I've just realised that it had left folder in %APPDATA%. I deleted it and it is not re-created any more. Yet, "AppData\Local\Mozilla" is still re-creating.

Same here

I just wanted to complain But this effect is NOT on FF 12.x.y, which I downloaded here. After updating to vers 13.0.1 at Mozilla.org it is the same. And these folders are not even empty!

XPpro, SP3

This is known and applies to all new mozilla packages, Thunderbird, Seamonkey included

We're looking into the issue you mentioned as it appears to affect all mozilla apps.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
