Before submitting a bug report

Step to reproduce

  1. Create containers
  2. Use Firefox for weeks or months
  3. Reboot the system
  4. It will randomly happen

Actual behavior

All containers are lost.

Expected behavior

No containers are lost.

Additional informations

I guess the trigger is rebooting the system without first closing Firefox, but might be something else.

Last updated happened Sep. 12th to 117.0.1.

It had happened another time, too about 1 month ago but I did not record the version number.

Hm, I haven't heard of any similar issue with Multi-Account Containers on MacOS and I don't have an Apple device to test further.

As a suggestion, you could try asking on [Firefox support forum](https://support.mozilla.org/questions/new/desktop/form or on Mozilla chat platform. If you never used the chat platform, there's instruction on https://wiki.mozilla.org/Matrix#Getting_Started to help getting you started. Hope it helps and if I hear anything I'll make sure to report back here.

Never happened anymore. Very strange. I'll reopen if it happens again.
