Hello, I'm trying to use the Multi-Account containers extension to enable me to login to my personal and work gmail accounts in separate containers. I'm clearly doing something very stupid as I just can't get it to work for me.

I have set up two distinct containers, one for each account and tried to log in to each and told the extension to always open each account in their respective containers. Firefox seems unable to remember these choices for the two accounts, however, and tries to open both in the same container, or at least questions the choice I have previously asked it to remember.

Can someone please explain what I'm doing wrong here, and how to make my choices 'stick'?

Thank you in advance!

clearly says that exactly this scenario; work and personal email can be contained within separate containers and yet I just can't seem to make it work. If anybody else has made it work I'd really love to know how!

Thanks!

Mentioned question was about a domain, not about your specific google account. That's why it opens in the same container.
