I know it may sound a bit strange, but I would like to know WHY an extension is not allowed in a private window, so I might understand the reason why I'm not able to diagnose an issue I'm having with fucking amazon who has their cart all over the place for a misconfiguration in firefox that either I did or an extension is causing, however I'm unable to figure out which because I can't enable extensions in private windows, where the issue does not happen, so I'm not able to reproduce and isolate the problem. Specifically, this article: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/extensions-private-browsing Plus, I was kinda expecting I could run STG in private too, since it offer such nice and rich grouping and memory management features vanilla FF does not (PS: please take inspiration and bake it inside!!) Thanks in advance.

Isisombulu esikhethiweyo

That is usually the case when an extension uses containers because containers aren't compatible with PB mode.

Okay, didn't know that, thanks for the info. So wait, can I enable specific extensions or not inside a specific container? Like, I would like this container to have extensions A, B and C and this other only B, C and D or something? Thanks.

No, an extension works in all containers. Containers partition website data like cookies and a webpage opened in one container can't access data from other containers, even if this same website is open in multiple containers.
