This should be be deleted from the coomon file in the program folder as it waste 20 meg of storage each time you put a new build which I do every week. I have to go in and deleted the old gre folder or it will just remain. I hope you will correct this problem on your next build. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.When you lpad a new version o Mozilla the old GRE folder remains with the new one. 2. 3. Actual Results: I go in to delete the old GRE folder. Expected Results: The old GRE should have been deleted when the new version of MOzilla is installed. IT just waste storage on the hard drive doing nothing.
Bug 198081 Old GRE's left on disk when upgrading Mozilla I assume you just installed ontop the old Mozilla. Deinstalling before installing should remove old unused GREs and program files and leave your profile intact. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 198081 ***
