Sorry for bothering the support team again but I have another question. After upgrading to Firefox v42.0 I have noticed a new folder in Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\(profile name)\ saved-telemetry-pings. I was just wondering what is saved telemetry pings and I read it is feedback for Mozilla. Also I read you can disable it in Preferences-Data Choices which I have done but new files still get created in that folder.

Thanks in advance I hope this will be solved!

Hey cor-el thanks for the fast reply. So is this just performance data for Mozilla/Troubleshooting? Is there a way to disable this because I have already unchecked Firefox Health Report in Preferences. Also is this normal?

Thanks alot, Hope to hear from you!
