What's your goal by "cleaning" your Profile?

Getting rid of obsolete files that could cause conflicts or are no longer used by Firefox in hopes of making Firefox run better. Firefox has gotten slower with each new update.

Best is to create a new profile if you want to get rid of remnants from older Firefox versions or extensions that you no longer have installed.
