I have a question about deleting a Firefox profile. When I access the profile screen via "about:profiles," I see two profiles: "default-release" and "Default User." The "default-release" profile is fine because it displays the message "This is the active profile and cannot be deleted." But is it okay to delete the "Default User" profile? Should I also delete the files in the root directory of the C: drive and the local directory? If I delete the "Default User", will it be deleted as well?

Regarding your question/consultation regarding Firefox profile deletion advice and questions, I deleted the "Default User" profile. After investigating, I realized I had overlooked the information in Mozilla Support. It provided detailed information, so I used it to manage and delete my profile. We regret to inform you that we have resolved your question/consultation.
