Hi
Welcome to the forum.

All you have to do is go to the Tools menu then Options, Privacy.
At the bottom, in the box that says Private Data, check Always clear my private data when I close Firefox and uncheck Ask me before clearing private data. In the button that says Settings check them all or the ones that you don't wish to keep.

Remember that a portable application won't leave personal information behind on the machine you run it on.

For more information check PortableApps.com or just post back.

thank you but in fact I want to set that in CCleaner and I dont want to clear my cache everytime I leave FF. I have my reasons, my Portable FF is on a RamDisk partition and I used to launch CCleaner to clear all the caches from the system in one time

Nobody knows ?

The location for the cache, stuff like that would change every time so i doubt ccleaner would work for that

If you don't want FF to clear clear your cache every time you leave it you can set it to ask.

I wouldn't set ccleaner to do that but if you still want to do it,
I found out that you can delete the *.sqlite files from FirefoxPortable\Data\profile.

Try it and see if it works.

You're right, it was the .sqlite files.
