Comment:

 Hi, thanks for opening this bug ticket. Sorry the terminology is
 confusing, can you give us examples so we can fix it? Even better, if you
 can open another bug with the confusing terms so we can take care of them
 properly that'll be very much appreciated, otherwise we'll do our best
 with the information you can provide us.

 As for the tracking files, can you explain what you mean by this or can
 you provide an example? There are
 [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=merge_ready&status=needs_information&status=needs_review&status=needs_revision&status=new&status=reopened&keywords
 =~tbb-disk-leak&summary=~indows&order=priority some existing bugs] we know
 about that are (mostly) due to the way Firefox integrates with Windows,
 but if these tracking files are something new then we'd like to know about
 them.

 To be clear, I'm not expecting you to look at the existing bugs, but if
 you can give us some more details about the files you found then we can
 better understand if this is a known bug or something new.

 Thanks
