After the closure of X-Firefox 18.0.1 [rev7] still remains the folder %AppData%\Mozilla. To solve this problem, it is necessary, in the section [RunAfter] of the file X-Firefox.ini add the following line:

DirRemove=@AppDataDir@\Mozilla\Firefox\Extensions

In the file X-Firefox.ini appears in the section [RunAfter] the following line of code:

DirRemove=@AppDataDir@\Mozilla|e

After my interpretation that means, that only the empty folders are removed from @AppDataDir@ on exit. My first question is, if this is the meaning of the option "e"?
Means the removal of empty folders, that the folder Mozilla itself must be empty, i.e. the folder Mozilla doesn't contain any subfolders (first case)? And does this imply also the case, if the folder Mozilla contains some subfolders, which then must be all empty, so that the above code can be executed (second case)?

Hi dropper,
the meanings of "|e" parameters is:
delete only if main folder and all of subfolders are empty (the second case).

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I still have another question in connection with the section [RunAfter]. On one hand the character "@" is used and on the other the character "$". Is there a reason for this decision or could not use instead of $LocalAppData$ simply @LocalAppData@?
