How do I look at individual items in cache history in Firefox 7.0.1? I tried using about:cache. I clicked on "List Cache Entries" (about:cache?device=disk) for the Disk Device Cache. I was looking for a quick solution, but Firefox was not responsive even 10-15 minutes later. I finally had to kill it off in Task Manager. I think there were about 75,000 entries. (only 1,309 now). I used to use a plug in called Cache View, but this probably does not work with the current version. Is there a very quick way to do this? I might need past data, that I forgot to save, and this might be the only way to get it.

hi,

If it is websites or pics from the cache, you could try opening it from the History window after enabling Work Offline and then save it from the offline mode.

That does not work most of the time. I could only get it to work only a few times, probably less than 5% of the time. I am convinced that there is a lot more data in the cache than Firefox 7.0.1 is willing to reveal

You can download this CacheViewer Version 0.7b

You can either edit the file install.rdf in that zip archive or use this extension to make Firefox install it via File > Open File.
