(Resolved) 'temp prof' folder

Post by albertd »

I am trying to increase my spare C Drive space and I have found that there is a folder within my Mozilla folder under 'AppData - Roaming' called 'temp prof'. It contains what appears to be two copies of an old Thunderbird profile which came across when I copied from my old laptop to this one. Neither copy of the profile has been touched for many weeks and has a file name which does not appear in my current TB profile folder.

Would it be safe (or even possible) to remove or empty this temp prof folder as it is taking up 7GB of space which I could do with having spare?

Edit: I have made a backup of the folder on a different drive.


Edit2: Ignore the above please. It has just dawned on me that I created the folder myself as I was transferring the profile from my old PC.
