See https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Install-and-Update/Profiles-Where-Firefox-stores-your-bookmarks-passwords-and-other/ta-p/4608 for a listing of what files store what in your profile. You can delete ones you don't want. Firefox will create a new default replacement next time you start. ***IMPORTANT*** 1) you must ***NOT*** be running Firefox against that profile when you do the deletions. Otherwise it will restore from crash-backup and/or memory when it exits. 2) You ***MUST*** first open Firefox with that profile and then close it "properly" with either "File ==> Quit" or the {CTRL}{Q} keyboard shortcut. Firefox has a "crash-recovery" option that allows it to resume a session if it is killed externally, e.g. "killall firefox". -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
