I have tried the different suggestions that already exists except for uninstalling the firefox and deleting the folders from Program Files directories in Windows. I want to try this only as the last option.

The Firefox disk cache is in this location:

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

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

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
  • ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profile>/

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

  • C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
  • ~/Library/Caches/Firefox/Profiles/
