I noticed I have thousands of tmp containers inside Multi-Account Containers. How do I get rid of them all at once?

I do not use Firefox Sync.

Things I tried:

"Delete no longer needed Temporary Containers: after the last tab in it closes" this was set for a long time. I changed it.
Change "Container Number" to "Reuse available numbers" and "Keep counting until browser restart"

  • Temporary Containers Version: 1.9.2
  • Firefox Version: 97.0.1

Not using Firefox Sync isn't relevant. Relevant is whether you activated the sync feature in MAC. See #371

Under Firefox Multi-Account Containers, Firefox Account Sync was not enabled.

If it was enabled at some point then it already produced the bug and hence the containers that are not deleted. See #371 for a multitude of suggestions of how to get rid of them.

Closing in favor of #371
