I running the latest portable firefox and when i use it in vista it alwya creats a folder named Mozilla under
c:/users/%username%/Appdata/Roaming
Is this something where i can create a batch file to remove the Dir? and if that is the case does a normal install of firefox use a folder at the same location?
If so i don't want the batch file to remove anything that was there be for i ran the portable version.

May be something new to Vista. There aren't many Vista users so this probably was just missed before. I'll take a look at it and have the next release of the launcher fix this.

That appears to be correct. I have that folder too.

I found the folder "Mozilla" in my Vista profile at %systemdrive%\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming, and I only have Firefox Portable. Firefox has never been installed locally on this computer, and I have not used any other Mozilla products on this computer. The folder is dated "10/12/2009", so if changes to Firefox Portable have been made since then, this issue may nolonger apply.
I hope this information helps. Has there been any progress or new information learned about this issue?
Thanks,
Zephyr Riley

This is a temporary folder that includes a Firefox\Crash Reports folder and an Extensions folder. It is automatically removed on exit of Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition.
Only a full PC crash or having Firefox auto-update will cause it to remain. In that case, the Crash Reports folder will be empty. The Extensions folder will usually contain one or two blank folders corresponding to the IDs of one or two of your extensions.
If you have Firefox Portable set for multiple instances via the manual FirefoxPortable.ini file, the folder will always remain. This is by design and is not intended for use on any PC but your own.
