    How to Completely remove Firefox remnants after uninstall?


    Firefox was giving me Many problems that support couldn't resolve..., I uninstalled it (normally), and went to Opera (happy)-

    Now my Lastpass/CCleaner/... thinks I still have Mozilla Firefox installed, and programs... try to update FF?
    If I show Hidden files Mozilla shows in appdata...

    I would like to Completely get FF Completely off of my computer, and wonder how?-
    I was thinking of reinstalling FF/reboot, then showing Hidden files, then running Revo as Admin/deep uninstall, but am scared I might corrupt my computer?

    Any other ideas would be appreciated?

    This may help: Uninstalling Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base , but then, simply asking for assistance in fixing the problem(s) would have been less drastic and it might have been very easy and quick to remedy whatever was at fault.
