Unless explicitly overridden (not just deleted), some data from browsing sessions could be extracted using digital forensics tools from a disk image. Especially in a time when people are looking for more confidence in their devices' security, a statement like this is confusing.</P> Fri, 13 Mar 2026 12:53:28 GMT https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/quot-leave-no-traces-on-this-device-quot-misleading/m-p/119918#M46969 psutherland 2026-03-13T12:53:28Z https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/quot-leave-no-traces-on-this-device-quot-misleading/m-p/119928#M46977 <P>Hello</P><P>What information is stored in my profile?<BR /><A href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data#w_what-information-is-stored-in-my-profile" target="_blank">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-where-firefox-stores-user-data#w_what-information-is-stored-in-my-profile</A></P><P>You can use, SQLiteStudio, if you wish.</P><P>By way of illustration <A href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1521409" target="_blank">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1521409</A></P><P>Others indicators <A href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1535029" target="_blank">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1535029</A>, if you use private window, <A href="https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1550484" target="_blank">https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1550484</A></P> Fri, 13 Mar 2026 17:38:54 GMT https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/discussions/quot-leave-no-traces-on-this-device-quot-misleading/m-p/119928#M46977 Agentvirtuel 2026-03-13T17:38:54Z
