If a startup tab is closed before fully loading, it reopens in a temporary container #515

Actual behavior

I have startup behavior set to open several URLs. Upon launching Firefox, if any of these tabs is closed before fully loading, a second later it will reopen in a temporary container. None of these URLs/domains are set to be isolated in Temporary Containers, and automatic mode is disabled. (note: all TC settings are at their default values, with the exception of a few isolated domains unrelated to this issue).

Expected behavior

When a tab is closed manually, it stays closed.

Steps to reproduce

Not reproducible in a new profile :/

This seems to be a bug related to the setting Advanced > General > Isolation > Multi-Account Containers. When this setting is disabled, the issue resolves. May be related to #521.

Sorry you're encountering that bug, but

doesn't make it actionable. It's way too much effort to try to maybe find the combination of settings that causes it for your. Best advice is starting a profile from scratch until you hit the issue again, then not toggle the setting it causes and report it here, making the issue actionable.
