I have just deleted 2,386 files from the cache, cannot uninstall Mozilla from the system to reinstall it! Do not use it as my main browser anyway.

Hi

If you wish to uninstall Firefox, I recommend that you have a read of this article that will walk you through the process.

What is wrong with that number of files?

Do you remember how many disk space these files took?

Firefox uses two locations for the Firefox profile folder, so make sure to look in the correct location. Location used for the main profile in "AppData\Roaming" that keeps your personal data.

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

Location used for the disk cache and other temporary files in "AppData\Local".

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