How can I prevent Firefox from storing a 10 MB places database file in my Windows roaming profile?
- by Paul D. Waite
On my work PC, Firefox stores a 10 MB file called places.sqlite in my roaming profile:
C:\Users\MY_USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\PROFILE_ID\places.sqlite
I don't use any location-related features in Firefox, and this file causes my roaming profile to be larger than my company allows (25 MB), meaning I get warnings about my profile size every day.
Can I stop Firefox storing this file in my roaming profile?
