Hi @dauge, I've tested this issue.
Here are the steps made:

• install Wise Disk Cleaner X
• open a FF version
• open Wise Disk Cleaner X
• click on "Scan"
• after a few moments a pop-up with a message announcing the user the fact that the caches & cookies will be deleted after the FF is closed.
• click "YES"
• expand Web browser Cache -> Mozilla Firefox Cache
• CLICK on CLEAN => after that all the files are deleted.
  So, in conclusion in my opinion that isn't an issue.
  Further I will set a component to it, if isn't a proper one please fell free to change it. Additionally, if you have more info please provide them.
  Thanks.

Liviu, could you try reproducing using browsingData.removeCache() like in the description, and verify the result by listing the cache folder? I don't think Wise Disk Cleaner is needed here.

Nhi Nguyen, can you please add steps how can I RUN the "browsingData.removeCache()" from toolbar?? - description is vague, not offer details + if you said that the app presented on screenshot shouldn't be involved, why was added?
Thanks.

dauge, could you please provide step by step instructions on how to reproduce this bug? Were you using/testing an extension? What toolbar shortcut was it? Thanks!
