Hi,
I would like to know if anyone can tell me the location of the LibreWolf cache in win 10x64..?
So I can add it to my cleaning app to wiped clean
I understand it deletes on exit, but this is not a secure "wipe" - a hacker can 'undelete' my cache n cookies! As any PC expert will tell you, files deleted aren't. They are simply marked to be written over in the Master File Table (MFT) "at some point" and that can take a while depending on the size and free space of the drive, and mine is always 80% empty, so its unlikely to be over-written for a while with wear levelling... yes it's an SSD, but I don't care about write wear down.
Also, I use SSD (system) and HDD's (storage) - can the cache be moved to another drive off the system SSD?
thanks in advance
