Rosika Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hello everybody, I´ve got an odd problem, perhaps there´s someone out there who can help me. I am using firefox 32 beta at the moment. There´s an add-on which is called "cache-viewer 0.7.6".I installed it recently in order to have easy access to my browser cache. Yet it remains empty. So I tried the programme "Mozilla Cache View" by nirsoft. The same results, no access whatsoever.I know that the cache is located in "Users...... AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox....". So I know the correct path for the right settings.However when trying to gain access to the path manually by using the explorer I am successful. So the path is correct. I contacted Camp Firefox and they informed me that there is a new cache-backend in firefox as of version 32.So third-party programmes cannot gain access to the old API. My question is now:Is there anybody who kwows of a programme that is able to list my browser cache entries and works with the new firefox-versions? Any comments are highly appreciated. Thank you very much in advance Rosika P.S.: System: WIN 8.1, 64bit.Firefox: 32.0 beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilolee Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Problem already solved? Did you try with the stable version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosika Posted September 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hi Xilo, nice to hear from you again. I tried several versions of firefox - with the same results. It´s the same with firefox 33.0 beta as well. It seems it´s not a matter of stability but rather a matter of principle. All versions 32 plus won´t gain access to the cache as the cache-backend has been altered. The only thing to do is to wait until someone writes a pogramme that takes the new situation into account. But thanks for contacting me again. Have a nice weekend Best regards Rosika Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
