Do removing an extension fully removed it from the computer or does it leave leftover files?

So I installed a extension for Firefox. And then I removed it.

I want to know if removing a extension leave leftover files or things of that sort on your computer still or does removing a firefox extension fully remove everything associated with that extension?

It depends upon the extension. When an extension is uninstalled the folder containing that extension is removed. Some extensions will add files outside of this folder and they may not be removed. Additionally some extensions add details of their settings/poreferences to the Firefox preferences file and these will normally not be removed.
