seamaiden Posted April 1, 2006 Share Posted April 1, 2006 Request for help with CCleaner and Mozilla Firefox/Thunderbird custom profile locations: Here are the default install locations for Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird. (On my PC, that's where they are.) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird Here are the default locations for their profile.ini files. (Windows 2000/XP) (On my PC, that's where they are, and they are probably also here even if the programs were installed in custom locations.) C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\profiles.ini C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Thunderbird\profiles.ini Here are the default locations for their profiles. (Windows 2000/XP) C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profilename] C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\[profilename] But my profiles are stored in custom locations on another hard drive. These custom locations are indicated in the profiles.ini files. L:\AdminFX\[profilename] L:\AdminTB\[profilename] Here are my customized profile.ini files. IsRelative=0 means that the profiles are not stored in the default location IsRelative=1 means that the profiles are stored in the default location Default=1 indicates the last profile opened or used My profiles.ini for Firefox [General]StartWithLastProfile=0 [Profile0] Name=Ocean IsRelative=0 Path=L:\AdminFX\Ocean Default=1 [Profile1] Name=Test1 IsRelative=0 Path=L:\AdminFX\Test1 My profiles.ini for Thunderbird [General]StartWithLastProfile=0 [Profile0] Name=Mail IsRelative=0 Path=L:\AdminTB\Mail Default=1 [Profile1] Name=News IsRelative=0 Path=L:\AdminTB\News Can something be written for me so that CCleaner can clean the normal Firefox/Thunderbird entries which are in winapp.ini and those in winapp2.ini? There may be people who have installed Firefox/Thunderbird to custom locations. That would be another issue. Here are some examples. C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Firefox C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Mozilla Thunderbird C:\Program Files\Mozilla\Thunderbird Note: I briefly mentioned something about this in the Suggestions thread, but this post is much more detailed. Windows 10 (x64). Android 11. CCleaner Pro 6.02.9938. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
