Isisombulu esikhethiweyo

o3wolff5.default-1533932994367 is the name of that Firefox Profile.

o3wolff5 is an automatically generated 8 character SLT or SALT prefix to go with the suffx default (or other when the user creates a new Profile and names the new Profile) and -1533932994367 is the time stamp on a Profile that was Refreshed.

Vague description of SLT / "SALT" with regards to Mozilla software: https://www-archive.mozilla.org/start/1.5/faq/profile.html See - 7.4. What is the @$%#@$%#.slt directory in my profile directory?

But the actual Profile folder is in the C:\Users\stans\AppData\Roamingl\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ path.

C:\Users\stans\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ is a secondary set of folders for the cache and a few other 'fast load' files that are temporary in nature.
