Multi-Account Containers Not Working

I can't seem to get the firefox multi-account containers add-on to work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times and closing a re-opening the browser. I've tried disabling all other add-ons in case they were interfering and, as far as I know, I have the most recent version of the browser. It shows it installing and then nothing happens and the container symbol doesn't show up. What's going wrong?

You aren't using permanent Private Browsing mode (Always use Private Browsing mode; Never Remember History) because containers do not work in PB mode ?

Another user reported having issues with multi account containers, so I think it's a bug. I'll add your post to the list as part of the bug report. Sorry about that.
